Research History
Dr. Tsukagoshi has developed nano-devices fabricated in nano-materials. In the transport experiments of the nano-carbons, nano-injection between the electrode and nano-carbons was carefully formed to control the electron injection. Contact interface between metallic contact and organic film was also investigated to establish the organic transistor. In these experiments, he noticed that the electron injection would be key point to control the nano-electronics. His researches are widely known in the world as important pioneering results to understand the transport in nano-carbons. Topics are mentioned bellow:
- Spin-dependent transport in carbon nanotube: Spin polarized transport was succeeded in carbon nanotube. (This report was published in Nature. So far, this paper was cited more than 370 times.)
- Nano-gap fabrication and molecular transport: 1 nm control for metallic nano-gap was developed for molecular-scale material transport. A spin dependent transport in a dimer of fullerenes was detected.
- Gate-electric field dependent conduction in grapheme: band-gap engineering in graphene was successfully performed.
- Organic transistor: Current injection mechanism in organic thin film transistor, that was one of the most important issues to be solved for transistor control, was revealed.
