Spintronics Low-Power Semiconductor Development Hub
Leading the World in the Development of Spintronics Semiconductors and Their Application Systems
This center is the world's only R&D facility compatible with 300mm wafer processes in spintronics low power semiconductor development. We enable integrated development from design, material, device, chip demonstration, and system integration. Through this, we lead the world in developing spintronics logic semiconductors—a world-leading low power technology that reduces power consumption to 1/100—and their applied systems.

Professor
Tetsuo Endoh
Toward the realization of a future carbon-neutral society, I am conducting research on (1) green electronics technology (low-power technology) to reduce the operating power of semiconductor chips—ranging from memory to AI, IoT, FPGA, and GPU processors that process information in various systems— and (2) power electronics technology (high-efficiency power conversion technology) to achieve highly efficient power management. Simultaneously, I am promoting industrial-academic collaborative development for practical application. Furthermore, I am committed to contributing to the development of human resources, including young researchers and engineers.
