Research Interests<br />
Mechanical and electronic properties in ceramics are strongly influenced by the atomic<br />
structures of the grain boundaries and hetero interfaces. Prof. Ikuhara’s main researches are<br />
related to the grain boundary and interface characterization and their phenomena. His interest<br />
topics are the followings:<br />
1. Transmission electron microscopy for materials science (HRTEM, STEM, EDS, EELS)<br />
2. Grain boundary and interface characterization<br />
3. High temperature deformation behavior in single crystal and polycrystalline ceramics<br />
4. Grain boundary phenomena in electronic ceramics<br />
5. Bicrystal and tricrystal studies(Basic research for grain boundary engineering)<br />
6. Lattice defects (Dislocation behavior)<br />
7. Theoretical calculation for materials science (MO, MD, First-principles)<br />
8. Nano-coating technology<br />
9. Advanced materials (Superconductor ceramics, DLC, TiAlN, c-BN etc)<br />
10. Ionic conductor and ceramic quantum device
