The Research in ISSP

ISSP uniquely brings together experts in experimental methods and physical theory to elucidate material science. Our research consists of "Materials and Systems" development to create new materials, "Measurements and Control" to measure their properties, and "Theory and Computation" to understand the results and create new science. By organically interacting with these three axes, we are developing material and physical science.

In 2016, we established two cross-disciplinary groups: the Functional Materials Group and the Quantum Materials Group. These groups promote fusion research that goes beyond the framework of conventional disciplines in condensed matter physics and materials science.

Number of Publications

ISSP publishes nearly 400 scholarly articles annually. About 40% of articles are internationally co-authored and on average, each faculty member (Professors, Project Professors, Associate Professors, Project Associate Professors) publishes about 10 articles per year. The most published field is physics, followed by materials science, chemistry, and engineering. The number of highly cited papers (in the top 1%, 5%, or 10%) is about 30 to 40 per year, indicating high quality and quantity of activities

Integrated Research Systems

To promote the creation of new academic fields through the fusion of academic disciplines that transcend the boundaries of existing organizations, ISSP has established the Cooperative Research Organization in which multiple departments within the university undertake collaborative research from time to time. ISSP also participates in the following collaborative research organizations.
