Solid State Chemistry Lab
Machine-translated · View original
The lab combines two or more kinds of anions to create inorganic materials that do not yet exist.
AboutAbout the lab
New functions from new materials
The Solid State Chemistry Lab (Kageyama Lab) studies the synthesis and functions of mixed-anion compounds, which contain two or more anions, and leads the field by building its fundamental theory and publishing review papers and textbooks.
The lab also contributes to a hydrogen society through hydrogen-containing ceramic materials and explores new materials using every available synthesis method. It promotes a research environment without barriers between fields, with members ranging from synthetic chemists to physicists.
Key terms
- Anion
- An ion with a negative charge (negative ion), such as the oxygen anion
- Mixed-anion compound
- A compound containing two or more kinds of anions. It offers greater freedom in materials design than oxides
- Hydride
- A negatively charged hydrogen ion (H⁻)
ResearchResearch themes
Breaking down the barriers between chemistry and physics and between individual functions, the lab develops new materials and explores new functions, aiming to create "future materials" that will support daily life.
*Illustrative imageMixed-anion compounds
In contrast to oxides, in which metals are all surrounded by oxygen, mixed-anion compounds containing two or more anions offer greater freedom in materials design. The lab studies their synthesis and functions and is establishing design guidelines.
*Illustrative imageHydrogen-containing ceramics
Toward realizing a hydrogen society, the lab draws out the characteristics of positively charged protons (H⁺) and negatively charged hydrides (H⁻) within stable ceramics, and works to create unexplored phenomena in which the two act in concert.
*Illustrative imageExploring new materials by every method
In addition to traditional solid-state reactions, the lab explores new materials through low-temperature topochemical reactions, high-pressure synthesis, thin-film synthesis, electrochemistry, hydrothermal synthesis, and mechanochemical reactions, and also conducts materials searches with genetic algorithms and prediction of reaction pathways.
