In the Department of Theoretical Nanotechnology, we strive to understand the properties of materials at the nanoscale and employ computer simulations and physical theories to discover methods to enhance their properties. Additionally, we are also developing new simulation techniques using data science approaches, including machine learning. Recent research topics include the study of amorphous material properties using topological data analysis, the development of high-efficiency simulation methods using machine learning potentials, and theoretical research on spintronics. We also actively collaborate with other theoretical and experimental groups.
