Inorganic Solid State Chemistry Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that creates new functions from solid materials such as oxides.

AboutAbout the lab
Exploring new solid-state functions through combinations of elements.
The Inorganic Solid State Chemistry Lab studies a wide range of solid materials, including oxides, with the aim of discovering, creating, and understanding new functions.
Using advanced techniques that handle scales from nanometers up to sizes visible to the eye, the lab synthesizes thin films and measures their electrical, magnetic, and optical properties.
When compounds are synthesized by combining elements of the periodic table, a diversity of physical properties beyond imagination emerges.
The lab aims to build new scientific principles of materials chemistry, with solid materials as its subject.
Key terms
- Thin film
- A thin film at the nanoscale. An important technology for making elements that function as electronic components
- Ferromagnetism
- The property of behaving as a magnet. This lab studies semiconductor materials that show ferromagnetism
- Electric double-layer transistor
- A transistor structure in which applying an electric field controls the number of electron carriers in a material
