Development
of �eSmart�f polymer-based Biotechnologies
. |
Our research group is interested in developing �esmart�f
biotechnologies using stimuli-responsive polymers that respond to small changes
in external stimuli with large discontinuous changes in their physical
properties. These �esmart�f biomaterials are designed to act as an �gon-off�h
switch for drug delivery technologies, gene therapy, affinity separations,
chromatography, diagnostics etc.

Nanoarchitecture: R&D towards realization of nano device systems. |
Taking advantage of the characteristics of chemistry, biology, physics, and electronics, our goal is to realize nanometer scale architecture with device functionality. Both processing and characterization are essential elements we continue to study and develop. Examples of our research are: formation processes of an atomic wire with 1.5 nm width and 1micro-meter length, new devices using DNA as templates, organic devices fabricated with a new method using polarized UV light, and quantum information processing using a 2-element delta doping technique.

Basic research on nanoscale electronics based on Pi-electron materials |
Pi-electron materilas will enable next generation electron devices, such
as flexible electronics and nano-scale carbon devices. These materials
are synthesized by self-organization and orderd by self-assembly. We develop
nano-scale fabrication to realize the devices, and subsequently characterized
their electrical properties.

Development of Injectable Materials for Tissue Regeneration |
Using covalent bonding and intermolecular interaction, biomedical materials which show sol-gel transition under the physiological environment have been prepared to develop adhesives for tissue-tissue and cell-cell bonding. Combining these materials with drugs and cells, novel injectable materials for tissue regeneration have been developed.
