Hideo Ohno (Japanese: 大野 英男; Hideo Ōno; born 18 December 1954, Tokyo) is a Japanese physicist. He is a professor of spintronics at Research Institute of Electrical Communication Tohoku University.
Biography
He received the B.S., M.S. and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Tokyo in 1977, 1979 and 1982. He spent one year as a visiting-graduate student at Cornell University, Ithaca, USA from 1979.[1] From 1982 to 1983 he was a lecturer of School of Engineering at Hokkaido University. From 1983 to 1994 he was an associate professor. In 1994 was appointed a professor of Tohoku University.[2] Since 1995 he is a professor of Research Institute of Electrical Communication (RIEC) at Tohoku University. In 2004 he became a head of laboratory of Nanoelectronics and Spintronics at Tohoku University. In 2010 became a director of center for Spintronics Integrated Systems. He was a possible candidate for receiving of Nobel prize in 2011[3]
