Hiroki Hibino received his B. S. (1987) and M. S. (1989) in physics from the University of Tokyo and a Ph.D. (2006) in Pure and Applied Physics from Waseda University. He joined NTT Basic Research Laboratories in 1989, where
he has been studying surface dynamical processes using microscopic techniques, and is currently the leader of the Low-dimensional Nanomaterials Research Group. His research topics include step structures on vicinal surfaces,
surface mass transport, step instability during epitaxial growth, self-assembled nanostructure formation, and epitaxial graphene growth. He spent one year as visiting research professor at Arizona State University, 2000-2001. He also has
experience as a visiting professor at the Tokyo Institute of Technology (2007-) and Kyushu University (2009-2010).
