Masaya Notomi was born in Kumamoto, Japan, on 16 February
1964. He received his B.E., M.E. and Ph.D. degrees in applied physics from
University of Tokyo, Japan in 1986, 1988, and 1997, respectively. In 1988,
he joined NTT Optoelectronics Laboratories. Since then, his research interest
has been to control the optical properties of materials and devices by
using artificial nanostructures, and engaged in research on quantum wires/dots
and photonic crystal structures. He has been in NTT Basic Research Laboratories
since 1999, and currently a group leader of Photonic Nanostructure Research
Group and a director of NTT Nanophotonics Center. He is also entitled as
Senior Distinguished Scientist of NTT since 2010. In 1996-1997, he was
a visiting researcher of Linköping University (Sweden). He was a guest
associate professor of Applied Electronics in 2003-2009 and is currently
a guest professor of Physics in Tokyo Institute of Technology. He received
IEEE/LEOS Distinguished Lecturer Award in 2006, JSPS (Japan Society for
the Promotion of Science) prize in 2009, Japan Academy Medal in 2009, The
Commendation for Science and Technology by the Minister of Education, Culture,
Sports, Science and Technology (Prize for Science and Technology, Research
Category) in 2010, and IEEE Fellow grade in 2013. He is serving as a member
of National University Corporation Evaluation Committee in the Japanese
government. He is also a member of the Japan Society of Applied Physics,
APS, IEEE, and OSA. |

30, 1961. He received the B.E., M.S. in physics and Ph.D. degrees in engineering
from the Osaka University in 1984, 1986 and 1993, respectively. He joined
NTT Basic Research Laboratories in 1986 and has engaged in the study of
compound semiconductor surfaces using electron diffraction and scanning
tunneling microscopy. His current interests are micro/nanomechanical devices
using semiconductor heterostructures. He was a visiting research fellow
in Imperial College, University of London, U.K. during 1995-1996 and a
visiting research staff in Paul Drude Institute, Germany in 2003. He is
a guest professor in Tohoku University from 2006 and a director of the
Japanese Society of Applied Physics (JSAP) in 2008 and 2009. He served
as more than 40 committee members of academic societies and international
conferences. He received JSAP Fellowship (2013), Commendation for Science
and Technology by MEXT (2013), Inoue Prize for Science (2012), Institute
of Physics (IOP) Fellowship (2011), SSDM2009 Paper Award (2010), MNC2008
Outstanding Paper Award (2009), and the Paper Awards of Japan Society of
Applied Physics (1989, 2004, 2010). He is currently an executive manager
of Quantum and Nano Device Research and a group leader of Hybrid Nanostructure
Physics Research Group. He is a member of JSAP, the Physical Society of
Japan, IOP, American Physical Society (APS), and IEEE.

Koji Muraki was born in Tokyo, Japan in 1965. He received
his B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in applied physics from The University
of Tokyo, Japan, in 1989, 1991, and 1994, respectively. In 1994, he joined
Basic Research Laboratories, Nippon Telegraph and Telephone (NTT) Corporation,
Kanagawa, Japan. Since then, he has been engaged in the growth of high-mobility
heterostructures and the study of highly correlated electronic states realized
in such structures. He was a guest researcher at Max-Planck Institute,
Stuttgart, Germany during 2001-2002. He served as a program committee/chair
of international conferences on High Magnetic Fields in Semiconductor Physics
(HMF) and Electronic Properties of Two-Dimensional Systems (EP2DS). He
