Notice: This page is an AI-generated English translation and may contain errors. The Japanese page is the authoritative version.

The Center has made part of its former website, which was operated during the Nanotechnology Platform Project, available as an archive.

Archive URL

https://www.cints.tohoku.ac.jp/old-site

Purpose

The archive preserves information that was published during that period, including research support, facility information, and achievement reports. It includes pages that are no longer in operation; accuracy and currency are therefore not guaranteed.

Coverage

The archive contains material published approximately from fiscal year 2012 through fiscal year 2021.

Notes

  • Descriptions may differ from the current research-support framework and facility-use procedures.
  • Broken links, missing images, or layout issues caused by Shift_JIS character encoding may occur.

Current Information

For current activities, support arrangements, and reservation procedures, please use this website.

Under the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology’s Advanced Research Infrastructure for Materials and Nanotechnology in Japan (ARIM) project, in which Tohoku University participates, a nationwide shared-use framework for advanced facilities has been established at 26 universities and research institutions. Materials data generated through shared-facility use have been collected and accumulated in forms suitable for use in data science and related fields.

From September 30, more than 110,000 data records will be made available for shared use for the prescribed fee. The number of available records is expected to grow as facilities continue to be used. Broad use of materials data generated by diverse facilities across institutional boundaries is expected to accelerate data-driven materials research and development and strengthen Japan’s international competitiveness.
