Pioneering trans-scale measurements

The importance of multidimensional observation of materials is increasing as we work toward realizing a sustainable society. To fully understand phenomena related to materials, it is essential to capture events occurring across a wide range of temporal and spatial scales. For example, quantum transistors enable the observation of quantum phenomena by using nanoscale semiconductor tubes. In contrast, for concrete infrastructure, it is necessary to monitor not only long-term macro-scale degradation but also short-lived, highly localized phenomena.
Thus, uncovering the essence of material behavior requires a trans-scale perspective that bridges and integrates multiple scales. We are working to pioneer “trans-scale measurement,” a new framework that seamlessly connects nanoscale to macroscale observations using state-of-the-art synchrotron-based techniques at NanoTerasu. By combining diverse measurement methods, we aim to capture the complex behavior of materials in a multidimensional and holistic manner.
