(2026.7Update)
In addition to the nationwide shared system of state-of-the-art equipment and advanced technical support system developed through the nanotechnology platform, we will introduce advanced equipment that is remote, automated, and high throughput, and continue to share the equipment. Furthermore, we collect material data generated by sharing the equipment, and accumulate them as structured data that is usable in data science.
Structured data created by the Advanced Research Infrastructure for Materials and Nanotechnology (ARIM) will be shared through the Data Center Platform built by the National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS). In addition, we will contribute to strengthening material innovation force by building a “Material DX Platform” in collaboration with the Materials Data Creation and Utilization R&D Project.
The Nanotechnology Research Center has facilities such as clean rooms including Class 100, chemical and biological laboratories, and electrical measurement laboratories, and equipment such as nanofabrication, measurement and evaluation equipment, etc.
These facilities and equipment are widely open to researchers and engineers inside and outside the university as one of the “Materials Advanced Research Infrastructure (ARIM)” of the MEXT, and can use equipment, provide technical consultation, provide technical agency, and conduct collaborative research. In addition, we hold workshops on equipment for beginners and intermediate users from time to time.
Please visit the Nanotechnology Research Center website for details on technical support, shared-use programs, including instructions for use and the list of available equipment.
