Welcome to Quantum Nanoelectronics



The Quantum Nanoelectronics is led by Prof. Atsufumi Hirohata based on spintronics and quantum transport. Our final goal is to fabricate a spintronic device, which has higher recording denisity and faster operation speed than the existing devices. This can be achieved in a combination of approaches; realisation of perfect spin polarisation in a new magnetic material (materials science) and investigation of spin-polarised electron current behaviours (electronics), both of which are based on fundamental physics theories. This research field, spintronics, is therefore, very challenging but very attracting.

2 PhD scholarships are available on our SAHAJ project. Find the details on the application documents under the Regular Doctoral Degree Program tab at this page. You can find the details of the application process on the Advance Notice on the top line of the corresponding tab. Our group is associated with the Electronic Engineering Course at the Department of Electrical, Information and Physics Engineering in the Graduate School of Engineering.
