Shimizu Group
We study structures and properties unique to the material surfaces and interfaces. We use scanning probe microscopy for the characterization of various materials such as metals, semiconductors, oxides, organic thin films, and adsorbed molecules.

About Shimizu Group
April 2023 marks the sixth year of Shimizu Group in the Department of Applied Physics and Physico-Informatics, Faculty of Science and Technology, Keio University.
Our group focuses on the characterization of surfaces and interfaces of various materials including metals, semiconductors, oxides, organic thin films,
and adsorbed molecules. Scanning probe microscopy at the single atomic and molecular scales provides key information for the understanding of catalytic reaction mechanisms and the development of next-generation devices.
