 Greetings from DG Maekawa

Takasaki Institute for Advanced Quantum Science is a core R&D site for quantum beam science and technology, which are the main missions of the National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology (QST) established on April 1, 2016. We have been conducting innovative researches on the accumulated basis of radiation/quantum-beam application research for more than 60 years at our institute including the predecessor institutes, Takasaki Radiation Chemistry Research Establishment of the Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute and Takasaki Advanced Radiation Research Institute of the Japan Atomic Energy Agency.

Since the establishment of QST, it has been strongly promoting fundamental research on quantum technology, such as the creation of quantum functional materials that contribute to the realization of quantum sensing and quantum computers, by taking advantage of quantum beam. In addition, QST has been nominated as one of the one of the Quantum Technology Innovation Hubs (QIH) in Japan. In QIH, supply of high-quality quantum materials to companies, and training of corporate researchers has started by research and development through industry-academia-government collaboration. In addition, energy devices and environmental materials such as next-generation storage batteries have been developed as application of quantum technology, that contribute to a carbon-neutral and recycling-oriented society. Development of biomaterials with quantum beams, medical/agricultural applications using radio isotopes are also performed for realization of healthy society and future bioeconomy.

Through these efforts, we aim to contribute to the development of science and technology, and the promotion of industry by creating innovations in advanced quantum technology and its applications toward the realization of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations and Society 5.0, the vision of Japan's future society. We would appreciate your support for our activities at Takasaki Institute for Advanced Quantum Science.
