The Organoelement Chemistry Lab aims to pioneer the synthesis of new molecules, the unknown properties hidden in each molecule, and the functions that emerge when molecules assemble, and to put forward “Full-Spectrum Chemistry” that can contribute broadly to science and technology. The lab works on molecular design using computational science, organic synthesis using cutting-edge reactions, development of new skeletons that exploit the properties of heteroatoms, and structural analysis and evaluation of spectroscopic properties using a variety of instruments.

The Precision Inorganic Synthetic Chemistry Lab aims to pioneer innovative energy functions such as single-electron transport at room temperature, highly efficient photon concentration, long-lived charge separation, magnetic exchange coupling, and overall water splitting with visible light. By precisely controlling the particle size, shape, and composition of inorganic nanoparticles such as metals, metal chalcogenides, and metal oxides, as well as their ordered spatial arrangement, the lab controls the number of electrons, plasmon resonance, exciton lifetime, spin, and catalytic activity.

The Nanospintronics Lab (Ono Lab) creates nanoscale artificial materials by combining metals, semiconductors, and other materials, and aims to control the diverse physical properties that arise from the charge, spin, and phase of electrons. In particular, the lab aims to realize spintronics, which freely controls charge and spin, the two degrees of freedom of the electron. The lab makes artificial materials by combining the fabrication of atomic-layer multilayer films by ultrahigh-vacuum deposition with nanometer-scale processing by electron beam lithography.

The Biocatalytic Chemistry Lab (Yamaguchi Lab) studies how plant hormones, which are trace amounts of small-molecule signaling substances that regulate plant growth and morphology, are produced in the plant body and how they act. Based on these findings, the lab aims to develop technologies that control plant growth and morphology using plant hormone-related genes, mutants, and compounds.

The Aquatic Environmental Analytical Chemistry Lab studies trace elements and isotopes to clarify the present, past, and future of aquatic environments such as oceans and lakes. The lab conducts interdisciplinary research spanning analytical chemistry, geochemistry, marine chemistry, oceanography, limnology, geology, and environmental science.
Takeshi Hasegawa, Professor

The Molecular Environment Analytical Chemistry Lab (Hasegawa Lab) seeks to understand the functions of compounds by examining molecular packing, arrangement, orientation, and interactions at the level of individual functional groups. Rather than taking textbook pictures at face value, the lab studies in detail the chemical makeup of the devices we have in hand today. Its three pillars are organofluorine science, multiple-angle incidence resolution spectrometry (MAIRS), and organic semiconductors.
Tatsuo Kurihara, Professor

The Molecular Microbial Science Lab (Kurihara Lab) aims to elucidate the mechanisms behind diverse life phenomena in microorganisms through biochemical approaches and to develop applications from them. The lab studies the molecular basis of environmental adaptation in microbes living in extreme environments, novel enzymes that catalyze unique reactions, lipids that form biological membranes, and membrane vesicles that microbes release outside the cell. Based on these findings, it develops new ways of using microorganisms that are useful for purposes such as chemical production.
Atsushi Wakamiya, Professor

The Molecular Aggregation Analysis Lab (Wakamiya Lab) upholds the principle of “Needs Inspired Fundamental Science” and works on the chemistry of new π-conjugated systems, the creation of functional π-electron systems that take advantage of the properties of elements, and the development of next-generation solar cells as printable electronics. In particular, the lab takes on the materials chemistry of perovskite solar cells and their practical application.
Yuya Morimoto, Professor

The Integrated Nano-Analytical Chemistry Lab uses a variety of electron microscopes to observe materials directly at the molecular and atomic scale, and analyzes their structures and physical properties. Defects and interface structures that are averaged out and hidden in X-ray diffraction can be seen as real-space images with a microscope. By combining energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS), the lab also investigates composition and electronic states at the nanoscale.
Tomomi Fujii, Assistant Professor

The Atomic and Molecular Structure Lab determines the three-dimensional structures of proteins, which carry out biological functions, at atomic resolution by X-ray crystallography, and studies the relationship between the structure of protein molecules and their functions and properties from the perspective of structural biology. The lab aims to elucidate how enzymes recognize their substrates and the mechanisms of their catalytic reactions, as well as the strategies by which proteins of microorganisms living in extreme high- or low-temperature environments adapt to those environments.
