Miyahara lab is working on the development and applications of advanced scanning probe microscopy techniques that are geared toward material property characterization in nanometer scale such as quantum dots, nanoparticles, nanowires and novel energy materials. We are particularly interested in developing new spectroscopic material characterization techniques with nanometer scale spatial resolution based on mechanical detection of relevant signals. Some of the examples are optical spectroscopy and tunneling spectroscopy by force detection.
