Outline

About Lab.We conduct research on advanced micro/nano production technology, which can be applied to the next-generation ultra-precision manufacturing by focusing on photon energy, which is the ultimate energy believed to be the root of our life. Especially we are developing photon based cutting-edge techniques for micro/nano manufacturing science, such as laser-assisted nano-in-process measurement, laser-assisted nano-processing and structuring, and a novel concept about a future micro production system, cell-in-micro-factory, with which we can product innovative micro/nano functional devices supporting our future life.
In order to realize our target, not only conventional light energy propagating in free-space but also localized light energy emerging at near-field region of bulk material is applied to our research from both a practical viewpoint as manufacturing techniques and a scientific viewpoint based on basic physics.
Our research involves (a) proposal of new concept not only about elemental technology but also about a whole production system, (b) theoretical and experimental analyses unraveling its characteristics, and (c) experimental verification for practical realization.
