To respond to technological demands for development of future society, mission of our lab is to aim at advancement in materials design and processing, baring in mind the nano-meter length scale structural/interface control at affordable MEGA-scale production. In particular, making the best of and advancing the knowledge “Plasma Materials Engineering”, we challenge to propose novel materials/processing that attain both high quality and low-cost, multi-functionality and low environmental load simultaneously. Current research targets include; control of plasma spray co-condensation for nano-composite materials production for next-generation all-solid state lithium-ion batteries, design of multi-functional interface and development of low-temperature nanoparticle-assisted sinter-joint for wide-bandgap power device, development of dissimilar material joints to proceed “multi-material” technologies.
