Several members of our lab had the opportunity to visit strategic collaboration partners in Indonesia for several days, for sharing research progress in a mini-conference and many lab tours and discussions.
We visited the impressive Depok Campus of Universitas Indonesia (UI), hosted by Prof. Arief Udhiarto (Head of the Department of Electrical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering) and the team of colleagues and students of the Department. Lab tours showed the high level facilities for research and study, and we had plenty of chances to exchange ideas and plans for future collaborations. LINK
Many thanks to the organizers and presenters in the mini-conference at UI, which allowed us to explore topics of possible overlap of interests and capabilities.
From our side, 5 talks were delivered:
Keynote Talk: Daniel Moraru, “Recent advances in silicon nanodevices for quantum and optoelectronics applications”
Takuya Suzuki (M1), “Effects of new organic materials for next-generation electronics using silicon nanodevices”
Shogo Miyagawa (M1), “Experiments on light-illumination and its effects in silicon-on-insulator nano-transistors”
Baskoro Arif Rianto (M2), “Study of silicon-on-insulator pn diodes for clarification of band-to-band tunneling”
Daris Alfafa (D2), “Study of Tunneling transport in nanoscale Esaki pn junctions”
Together with a UI team, we also visited BRIN (Badan Riset dan Inovasi Nasional, i.e., National Research and Innovation Agency), the leading Research Institute and Agency of Indonesia. There, under the guidance of Prof. Ratno Nuryadi (Chairperson of BRIN ORNM, i.e., Organization for Research on Nanotechnology and Materials), we learned more about the BRIN structure, vision and achievements. We also had chances to visit several labs with explanations given by many alumni of Shizuoka University (and not only), including our former SU-UI Double Degree Program PhD graduate, Dr. Adnan Afiff. Thanks to BRIN for a warm welcome. Looking forward to the next ambitious projects and to continued interactions. LINK
Thanks are also due to the SSSV (Short Stay Short Visit) Program from our Faculty of Engineering and international-collaboration funding from our Graduate School of Science and Technology, which partly supported these unique and important interactions.
