Physics of new, interesting and useful materials
We are interested in the physical properties of strongly correlated electron systems, which are often seen in transition-metal oxides.
In a strongly correlated system, conduction electrons affect with each other through the strong Coulomb repulsion, and move together in a “correlated” manner. As a result, a conventional band picture is seriously broken down, and new phenomena can arise beyond the prediction of a band theory. High-temperature superconductivity in copper oxides and colossal magnetoresistance in manganese oxides are the prime examples.
Our research field covers a wide variety of functional properties in correlated electron systems; a large thermopower in transition-metal oxides, nonlinear conduction phenomena in organic conductors, and multiferroic behavior in novel low-dimensional materials.
