Graphene Research Scientist
About Hiroshi Takeda
In 2019, Hiroshi Takeda led the team that achieved room-temperature CVD growth of single-layer graphene on ultrathin polyimide substrates, without metal catalysts, enabling direct integration into roll-to-roll printed sensor arrays. That breakthrough wasn’t just about yield or speed; it solved the thermal mismatch problem that had plagued flexible electronics for over a decade, letting strain-sensitive piezoresistive elements retain >98% signal fidelity after 100,000 bending cycles at 3-mm radius. He keeps a worn notebook from his Kyoto University postdoc days where he sketched the first prototype of a graphene-laced epidermal patch measuring sweat lactate and interstitial glucose simultaneously, a design now licensed by two Japanese medtech startups. Hiroshi speaks deliberately, pauses often to adjust his glasses, and insists on testing every sensor prototype with his own forearm before submission. His lab’s cleanroom has no whiteboards, only hand-drawn schematics laminated onto the walls, annotated in red pen with corrections dated to the hour.
