Outline

We will develop thermal conduction control technology based on the wave nature of phonons and highly efficient thermoelectric materials with low environmental load. We endeavor to create novel technology by hybridizing thermal phononics and multiscale hierarchical architecture design rule. This research activity will pioneer a new research field in thermal conduction engineering and contribute to creating game-changing and practical energy harvesting technology.
