AboutAbout the lab
Exploring the boundary between the world of molecules and the world of things
Assistant Professor Kenta Goto, a Special Participating Faculty member of the Faculty of Collaborative Regional Innovation, specializes in condensed matter science, colloid science, and physical organic chemistry.
The research targets the boundary region between the microscopic world, where molecules are in lively motion, and the macroscopic world, where "things" function.
In recent years, the professor has been publishing results on dynamic emulsions with multiple and multiphase structures that behave like living things, and on molecules that convert light energy directly into mechanical power.
The professor belongs to the Molecular Assembly Chemistry Division of the Institute for Materials Chemistry and Engineering, and also holds a concurrent appointment in the Department of Chemistry in the Graduate School of Science.
Key terms
- Emulsion
- A state in which one of two immiscible liquids is dispersed in the other as fine droplets.
- Colloid science
- A field that studies the state in which tiny particles or droplets are dispersed in another substance.
- Phase separation
- A phenomenon in which a mixed liquid separates into multiple parts with different properties.
