Research Interests

Metamaterials are artificial media that consist of an enormous number of antennas, whose sizes are much smaller than the wavelength of electromagnetic waves.​
They are designed to possess novel electromagnetic properties that cannot be obtained using conventional materials found in nature.​

My studies are as follows. ​
・Development of fabrication technology that unites nanofabrication to mass production​
・Development of metamaterial film and bulk metamaterial​
・Investigation of peculiar optical magnetic field response of metamaterial composed of Split-ring Resonator​
・Development and evaluation of metasurface where optical refraction, reflection, and absorption were controlled​
・Study concerning high sensitivity gas sensing technology using metamaterial​
