Dr. Takeuchi's research program is in the area of combinatorial materials synthesis and characterization with an emphasis on novel electronic thin-film materials. Combinatorial approach to materials is an emerging paradigm of research methodology. It aims to drastically increase the efficiency at which new materials are discovered and improved. Using the combinatorial methodology, up to thousands of compositionally varying samples are synthesized, processed, and screened in a single experiment in order to rapidly survey large materials phase spaces.

Prior to joining the University of Maryland faculty, Dr. Takeuchi was involved in the pioneering research in the combinatorial approach to materials at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, where he was an Associated Western Universities Postdoctoral Fellow for three years. His other areas of interests include fabrication and characterization of novel metal-oxide multilayer devices and scanning probe microscopes. In the past, he was a member of the technical research staff at the Microelectronics and Fundamental Research Laboratories at NEC Corporation.

Dr. Takeuchi is a recipient of the Office of Naval Research, Young Investigator Program Award (2000), National Science Foundation CAREER Award (2001) and the Oak Ridge Associated Universities Ralph E. Powe Junior Faculty Enhancement Award (2000). He is a member of the American Physical Society, Materials Research Society and the American Vacuum Society.
