Quantum Science and Engineering (QSE) 
The use of quantum beams and plasma is indispensable for the development of new science and technology fields such as those of material/life sciences and industrial base technology. This division provides systematic educational programs in science and technology concerning quantum beams, plasma and their practical application in nanomaterials. The aim is to produce researchers and engineers who can respond flexibly to technological development in interdisciplinary and boundary areas.
Division's laboratories are grouped into 3 research groups.
