Hitoshi Ohta

The International EPR Society is honored to recognize Prof. Hitoshi Ohta as a Fellow of the Society. He has been a pioneer in the field of high-frequency/high-field EPR spectroscopy for spin systems in the THz range. His contribution to the studies of spin systems under multi-extreme conditions, which include high magnetic field up to 55 T using pulsed magnetic fields, high frequency up to the THz range, high pressure up to 2.5 GPa, and high sensitive detection using the micro-cantilever or nano-membrane, has been truly important for spin physics in condensed matter. He has published over 440 peer-reviewed scientific articles in high-standard journals. He also contributed to the EPR community for a long time by serving as Vice President, Acting President, and President of the International EPR/ESR Society, President of the Asia-Pacific EPR/ESR Society, and President of SEST in Japan.
