Research intern in the Goda Laboratory at the University of Tokyo from April to September 2026, investigating particle detection using surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) under Yasutaka Kitahama.
Used SERS and a portable 785 nm Raman spectrometer to detect polystyrene particles on gold substrates. Designed comparative experiments varying concentration, particle size and deposited layers, and analyzed their spectra. The concentration model achieved R² = 0.993 and the particle-size model R² = 0.997.
Presented “Detecting Microplastics: Polystyrene Particles on a Gold Substrate” at the University of Tokyo's Intern Talks on September 2, 2026.
Interests include experimental condensed matter physics, quantum materials and superconductivity, scanning magnetic microscopy, and optical spectroscopy.
