The lab explores superconductivity and other phenomena produced by the electrons of soft organic molecules.
AboutAbout the lab
Pioneering the electronic properties woven by soft molecules
The Low-Temperature Electronic Properties Lab (Sasaki-Nojima) studies the behavior of electrons, mainly in molecular organic conductors, which are formed by assembling organic molecules.
A distinctive feature of organic materials made of molecules is that they are "soft," and they are also attracting attention as lightweight, flexible electronics materials.
The lab aims to elucidate the fundamental properties of such materials (metal, superconductor, insulator) and to open up new physical properties.
The lab participates as a cooperating division in the Department of Physics in the Faculty of Science (4th-year undergraduates) and the Department of Physics in the Graduate School of Science (master's and doctoral programs).
Key terms
- Molecular organic conductor
- A material that conducts electricity and is formed by assembling organic molecules.
- Strongly correlated electrons
- An electronic state in which electrons strongly influence one another, so that it cannot be explained by the motion of each electron individually.
- Superconductivity
- A phenomenon in which electrical resistance becomes zero below a certain temperature.
