of Electronics, Shizuoka University, 3-5-1 Johoku,
Naka-ku, Hamamatsu 432-8011, Japan.
He received B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in
electrical engineering from Kyoto University, Japan in
1980, 1982 and 1985, respectively. In 1985, he joined
the Atsugi Electrical Communications Laboratories,
Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (NTT),
Kanagawa, Japan. Since then, he has been engaged in
the research and development of scaled-down CMOS
devices and silicon single-electron devices. During the
course of his research, he invented the basic structure of
FinFET in 1989 and single-electron multiple-valued
logic in 2001, and received IEEE International
Symposium on Multiple-Valued Logic (ISMVL)
Outstanding Contributed Paper Awards in 2004 and
2006, Director’s Award of NTT Basic Research
Laboratories in 2004, 28th JSAP Award for the Best
Original Paper in 2006, etc. In 2006, he became a
