About
Satoru Nakatsuji is an experimental physicist who is interested in developing new materials for finding novel states of matter, and in fabricating their thin films for spintronics and energy harvesting technologies.
Recently he has been focusing on developing new topological magnets that show unexpectedly large responses at room temperatures. He is also working on the high-resolution measurements not only at room temperature but down to milli-Kelvin range to search for exotic states highlighting quantum entanglement such as exotic superconductivity, quantum spin liquids and correlated electron fluids.
