Materials Design and Characterization Laboratory (MDCL)
The aim of MDCL is to promote materials science through the cycle of three research phases, Design, Synthesis and Characterization, which we call the “DSC cycle”. The MDCL consists of two divisions; Materials Design Division (MDD) and Materials Synthesis and Characterization Division (MSCD). Supercomputer Center (SCC) of ISSP belongs to MDD, while MSCD has seven sections for joint-use; Materials Synthesis Section, Chemical Analysis Section, X-Ray Diffraction Section, Electron Microscope Section, Electromagnetic Measurements Section, Spectroscopy Section, and High-Pressure Synthesis Section. In MDD, we explore novel mechanisms behind various cooperative phenomena in condensed matter by making use of its supercomputer system, and develop theoretical designs of new materials as well as materials with new nanoscale structures. In MSCD, we synthesize various types of new materials, develop single crystals, and characterize the structural, electromagnetic and optic properties of the materials by employing various methods. Almost all the facilities of the MDCL are open to domestic scientists through the User Programs conducted by the Steering Committees of the MDCL.
