About us
Our team contributes to the development of organic materials in the field of organic devices, nano technology, quantum science, and energy, based on organic synthesis.
Our specific targets include functional organic molecules, nanomolecules/materials, and two-dimensional organic nanosheets. These materials are constructed from organic molecules, which serve as small building blocks, in a bottom-up approach. This allows us to precisely control their physical properties according to their structures. We focus on synthesizing unique materials that enable various applications. Additionally, we have a strong collaboration with members in Nanoprobe group in on-surface synthesis and probe chemistry, aiming to create advanced nanomaterials.
