Atom-engineering for breakthroughs in oxide electronics
Taro Hitosugi
Tohoku University
Advanced Institute for Materials Research, Associate Professor
Outline of Research Theme
The primary point of the project is to pioneer atom-engineering for breakthroughs in the field of oxide electronics. Atomic-level control of thin film growth and investigation of thin film properties by using scanning tunneling microscope/spectroscopy (STM/STS) would unveil new materials science in oxides. These studies open a scientifically rewarding playground for both fundamental and application-oriented research aiming sustainable society.
