Dr. Adha Sukma Aji is an Assistant Professor at Nagoya University and a member of the Quantum Materials group at BRIN Research Center for Quantum Physics. He received his doctoral degree from Kyushu University, Japan in 2018. His research interests include applications of low-dimensional materials such as graphene (2D materials), TMDCs (2D materials), and carbon nanotubes (1D materials). He focuses on applying those materials to AI devices (physical reservoir computing), energy harvesting, devices beyond the silicon era, and so on.
