Our laboratory is very ambitious and is working on several national projects.
Would you like to learn more about “quantum technology” that will lead science and technology in Japan?
You will be able to learn about the cutting-edge engineering technologies of quantum technology, such as circuit, programming, equipment, AI, precision measurement, laser, wireless technology, security, communication, image processing and machine learning.
(1) Diamond quantum repeaters for the quantum internet
(2) Diamond quantum interface to establish a quantum computer network
(3) Fault-tolerant quantum computers with quantum error correction
What is ASPIRE?
ASPIRE is a program that promotes international collaborative research with the goal of advancing Japan’s scientific and technological capabilities.
Top researchers from Japan and around the world come together to conduct joint research on cutting-edge science and technology. Our current project, “Diamond spin qubits for quantum applications (DIAMONDQTECH),” is being carried out under the leadership of:
Our lab is participating as a Co-PI in the field of quantum communication.
Highlights for Students:
If you’re interested in studying abroad or conducting research in an international environment, we encourage our students to take on this exciting challenge!
The Interfaculty Graduate School of Innovative and Practical Studies at Yokohama National University was launched in 2021 as a unique graduate school that integrates diverse academic fields across the humanities and sciences. It brings together four graduate schools, the Graduate School of International Social Sciences, Graduate School of Urban Innovation, Graduate School of Environment and Information Sciences, and Graduate School of Engineering Science, to offer interdisciplinary and cross-cutting education.
Starting in the 2026 academic year, our lab will join this program, under the research theme “Integrated Electronics” and specializing in quantum computing, quantum communication, and quantum information.
Until the 2025 academic year, applications for our lab were only possible through the Graduate School of Engineering Science. From 2026 onward, applications will also be accepted via the Interfaculty Graduate School of Innovative and Practical Studies. In addition, applicants may apply to both graduate schools simultaneously using a single, unified entrance examination.
We warmly encourage not only students from Yokohama National University but also those from other universities to take advantage of this new opportunity and consider applying through both programs.

The guidance of senior students helped me to acquire new skills.
I was amazed by the research facilities and research funds available to undergraduate students.
Even as an undergraduate student, I can present at national physic conferences.
During my master’s course, I could become a leading author and publish articles in outstanding journals like Nature Portfolio.
The doctorate course offers a wide range of income-earning options, such as positions as a Research Assistant.
There is a certain degree of freedom when doing your research. As you grow, you encounter great research opportunities.
If you want, you can go abroad to study.
