    Quadrupling the depairing current density in the iron-based superconductor SmFeAsO1–xHx
    Iron-based 1111-type superconductors display high critical temperatures and relatively high critical current densitiesJc.The typical approach to increasingJcis to introduce defects to control dissipative vortex motion. However, when optimized, this approach is theoretically predicted to be limited to achieving a maximumJc…

    Nanobubble-assisted formation of non-gaseous nanoparticles in water
    For the past decade, there has been an intense debate over the existence of stable bulk nanobubbles in water. To distinguish gaseous particles from solid particles and liquid droplets, a key quantity to be measured is the mass density of the nanoparticles. Here, the mass density of the nanoparticles formed in the process of nanobubble generation was determined…

Overseas Branch Offices

The JST overseas offices are strategically located to capture the latest science and technology trends in their respective regions, actively promote the global activities of JST-funded Japanese researchers and leverage global networks to enhance and internationalize Japan's S&T.

  • Paris Office

    We are JST's first-established overseas office, responsible for a wide range of countries within Europe and Africa. We negotiate and coordinate with relevant organizations and support the growth of JST's European operations, where science cooperation is often multi-layered and complex. We also play a vital role in transmitting local information back to JST headquarters, and are actively expanding our network of related organizations in order to improve Japan's S&T presence in Europe.
