Outline

I focus on light scattering phenomena and aim to develop technology for the non-destructive evaluation of various physicochemical properties of biological tissues, agricultural products, and food. These objects strongly scatter light, resulting in a frequent change in the direction of the light. Light scattering depends on the physicochemical properties of the structure, but the quantitative relationship remains unknown. Thus, I have been working to clarify this.

Currently, I am focusing on colloidal solutions (soy milk, fat emulsions, etc.) and evaluating particle properties, such as nano/micrometer-scaled particle size.

I belong to a laboratory specializing in thermal fluids. Focusing on the similarities in the hierarchical nature of matter and light, I aim to develop original approaches by combining knowledge of optical engineering and thermal fluid dynamics.
