R031 Committee on Hybrid Quantum Nanotechnologies
In recent years, hybrid quantum nanotechnology, which aims to break through the limits by fusing various physics disciplines and materials, is becoming important as a concept that creates new technologies and industries. The R031 Committee pioneers the frontiers of quantum technology based on physical properties of electrons, spins, light, and phonons, as well as nanomaterial sciences and device physics, and realized new quantum technologies and metrologies that surpass conventional performance. By doing so, we aim to create an innovative technological foundation that contributes to the development of society and industry.
In recent years, extremely well controlled nanostructures and nanomaterials have been realized, and new interdisciplinary fields with a potential to create new innovations are being formed. On the basis of this background, the purpose of this committee is to discuss what to do now in industry and academia, with hybrid quantum nanotechnologies at the core, assuming the future in 5 to 10 years. This committee will create a forum to co-create research activities from the basics of nanophysics, quantum technologies, nanomaterials, and nanobiology to a wide range of applications by combining the strengths of industry, government, and academia.
