About us

Hello, I am Shinjiro Hara, the Group Leader of Semiconductor Nano-integration Group, MANA, NIMS. For semiconductor nanoelectronic device application in the next generation, our goal in this group is to develop novel semiconductor nanomaterials integration technologies and semiconducting nanometer-scale devices by “the Best of Both Worlds”, i.e., Top-down approaches after the deposition of thin film materials and Bottom-up ones by direct crystal growth of nanomaterials.
