Target of Research
At our Nanodevices Research Group, the development of silicon-based single-electron devices is being undertaken. Our group is now focusing on how to create more complicated functions using a simpler device structure and how to establish a fabrication process suitable for extremely-large-scale integration of single-electron devices. To provide a guiding principle for the experimental work, theoretical studies on electron transport and thermal oxidation of Si nanostructures are also carried out.
