Reseach Summary

We have investigated the nature of various materials using the computational methods such as ab initio calculation based on density functional theory, molecular dynamics and tight-binding method. We challenge to clarify many fundamental problems in nanotechnology --- for example, atomic structures and electronic states under strong electric field, electronic properties of semiconductor devices, molecular electronics, scanning probe microscopes, phase transition of structure of metal/semiconductor surfaces, deposition processes in thin-film growth, and so on.
