Kohzo Hakuta教授简介:

    Kohzo Hakuta received his B.S., M.S., and PhD degrees in applied physics from the University of Tokyo, in 1969, 1971, and 1974, respectively. In 1983, he joined the University of Electro-Communications (UEC-Tokyo), as an associate professor of applied physics, becoming a full professor in 1991. From 1988 to 1989, he was in the Department of Physics at University of Toronto, as a visiting professor. His research interests are on basic processes of light and matter interaction, especially, quantum optics, nonlinear optics, and laser spectroscopy. He is the first who experimentally extended the concept of electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) to nonlinear optics using atomic hydrogen. From 1997 to 2008, he served as the leaders of the CREST project “Quantum Solid and Nonlinear Optics: New Perspectives in Optical Physics, and the 21st century center of excellence program “Innovation in Coherent Optical Science”, both granted by Japan Government. From 2009, he serves as the leader of the JST SPIRE project “Development of Quantum Photonic Technologies Using Optical Nanofibers”. Now he is the director of Center for Photonic Innovation in UEC-Tokyo.
