2008 - Fellow of American Geophysical Union (AGU)
His scientific interests lie mostly in Mineralogy, Mantle, Analytical chemistry, Diamond and Pyrolite. His work deals with themes such as Perovskite, Synchrotron radiation, Silicate and Thermodynamics, which intersect with Mineralogy. His Mantle research integrates issues from Subduction, Oceanic crust, Olivine, Transition zone and Stishovite.
His work carried out in the field of Analytical chemistry brings together such families of science as Bulk modulus, Atmospheric temperature range, X-ray crystallography, Spinel and Phase boundary. His Diamond research incorporates themes from Graphite, Carbon nanofiber and X-ray spectroscopy. His work investigates the relationship between Pyrolite and topics such as Solid solution that intersect with problems in Grossular, Anorthite, Crystal chemistry, Eutectic system and Solidus.
Tetsuo Irifune focuses on Mineralogy, Analytical chemistry, Diamond, Crystallography and Mantle. His Mineralogy course of study focuses on Diffraction and Bulk modulus. His study in Analytical chemistry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both X-ray crystallography, Phase transition and Perovskite.
The concepts of his Diamond study are interwoven with issues in Diamond anvil cell, Graphite and Nano-. Tetsuo Irifune interconnects Lattice and Absorption spectroscopy in the investigation of issues within Crystallography. His Mantle research focuses on Transition zone and how it relates to Silicate perovskite.
His main research concerns Analytical chemistry, Diamond, Diamond anvil cell, Mantle and Condensed matter physics. His research integrates issues of X-ray crystallography and Ambient pressure in his study of Analytical chemistry. His Diamond research integrates issues from Optoelectronics, Nano- and Diffraction.
His Mantle research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Silicate, Subduction, Petrology and Transition zone. His Subduction study frequently involves adjacent topics like Mineralogy. His Condensed matter physics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Crystal structure and Anisotropy.
Tetsuo Irifune mainly investigates Superconductivity, Analytical chemistry, Condensed matter physics, Mantle and Ambient pressure. Tetsuo Irifune has included themes like Silicon, Germanium, Metal, Diffraction and Nitride in his Analytical chemistry study. His Condensed matter physics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Electron microscope, Crystal structure and Anisotropy.
The Mantle study combines topics in areas such as Subduction, Basalt and Crust. His studies deal with areas such as Pyrolite, Transition zone and Petrology as well as Crust. His work on Microprobe as part of his general Mineralogy study is frequently connected to Anhydrous, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.
