significant research in nanotechnology. These include the Physics<br />

Department (theoretical <strong>and</strong> experimental work on quantum-confinement<br />

<strong>and</strong> functional materials) <strong>and</strong> the Department of Applied Chemistry (TiO 2<br />

particles).<br />

Although my two-hour visit concentrated on composite<br />

nanoparticles/nanostructures as described above, I know from my previous<br />

visit in October 1996 that Prof. Komiyama is also active in areas related to<br />

amorphous silicon <strong>and</strong> other metal <strong>and</strong> semiconductor nanostructured<br />

materials. He is one of the research leaders in the one-step CVD synthesis of<br />

AlN, TiN, SiN, SiC, TiC, <strong>and</strong> ZrO (single or two components)<br />

nanostructured materials.
