Electroactive Materials Team

Functionalization of inorganic materials including metal oxides. Application to catalytic reaction.

Supermolecules Group

Fabrication and Functional Exploration of Supramolecular Thin Films for Electronics

Frontier Superconducting Materials Group

Research on the Synthesis, Analysis, and Characterization of Superconducting Materials

Frontier Molecules Group

• Creation of advanced π-liquid molecular materials.
• Research into improving the functionality of π-liquid materials, including the development of liquid electrets and the creation of functional π-gels.

Thin Film Electronics Group

The postdoctoral researcher is expected to mainly contribute to design and development of functional oxide thin film transistor. The vacuum film fabrication and characterizations, as well as transistor fabrication and characterizations in this research will be needed. Particularly, thin film will be fabricated by ALD system. Furthermore, nano-scale transistor fabrication using electron beam lithography will be used.

Thermal Energy Materials Group

Development of thermal conductivity measurements and analysis

Functional Chromophores Group

The Yamauchi Materials Space Tectonics JST-ERATO project invite applications for one postdoctoral researcher in the fields of Additive Manufacturing, Supramolecular Chemistry, and/or Electrochemistry.

The successful candidate will join a multidisciplinary and multinational team of organic/physical chemists and material scientists with full access to advanced research facilities at NIMS (Japan) and JST-ERATO-based tools at The University of Queensland (Australia), Waseda and Nagoya University (Japan). The project involves leveraging self-assembly at all length scales to create a new class of conductive porous materials for applications in energy generation/storage and as structural materials.
