TOYODA-GOSEI Leading Innovative R&D Industry-Academia Collaborative Chair

TOYODA-GOSEI Leading Innovative R&D Industry-Academia Collaborative Chair

 

In 1986, Toyoda Gosei Co., Ltd., started a joint research project with Professor Akasaki, Professor Amano, and Toyota Central R&D Labs., Inc., and began fundamental research on GaN materials. The commercialization of LEDs and their subsequent widespread adoption were based on this research. The core competencies cultivated from research, commercialization, expansion, and continuation will be utilized to create new business opportunities.
