Norikazu Mizuochi, Professor
0 student voices
The Quantum Materials Science Lab (Mizuochi Lab) conducts research using diamond. Diamond contains defects called NV centers, each consisting of a vacancy (a missing carbon atom) paired with a nitrogen atom. Individual NV centers can be observed optically at room temperature, and their spins can be manipulated and read out at room temperature. They are therefore expected to find applications in ultrasensitive sensors, quantum information devices, and biomarkers.

Ryohei Ishige, Professor

The Molecular Rheology Lab (Ishige Lab) combines methods for controlling the higher-order structure of polymers by exploiting self-assembly, such as liquid crystals and microphase separation, with precise structural analysis methods, aiming to clarify the relationship between polymer structure and properties. The main targets are rigid-rod polymers, which have extremely high heat resistance and are expected to serve as high-performance film materials.

Hironori Kaji, Professor
0 student voices
The Organic Molecular Materials Lab (Kaji Lab) develops light-emitting materials for organic EL and organic semiconductor materials. The lab is also developing methods for investigating how materials work, such as analyzing molecular orientation in organic thin films by solid-state NMR and analyzing charge transport in organic thin films by multiscale calculations.

Tohru Sato, Professor
0 student voices
The Quantum Molecular Science Lab (Sato Lab) is a lab in the Theoretical Research Division of the Fukui Institute for Fundamental Chemistry. The lab conducts theoretical research ranging from fundamental problems in physical chemistry to applications, focusing especially on phenomena involving the interaction between electrons and molecular vibrations. The lab theoretically elucidates the mechanisms of luminescent molecules, catalysts, thermoelectric materials, and solar cells, and designs new molecules.

SIVANIAH Easan, Professor

The Pore Physical Chemistry Lab (Sivaniah Lab) is based at the Institute for Integrated Cell-Material Sciences (iCeMS) at Kyoto University and operates as "Pureosity Labs." Centered on membrane science and clean technology, the lab addresses challenges such as reducing emissions of harmful substances and energy-efficient water purification. Through joint research, industry-academia collaboration, and starting companies, the lab aims to bring its research results to society. A spin-out company has also emerged from the lab.

Michinori Suginome, Professor
0 student voices
The Organic Design Lab (Suginome Lab) aims to develop innovative molecular transformation reactions and new functional materials. Building on organometallic chemistry, the lab searches for new reactions and reagents and develops efficient methods for synthesizing organic compounds containing silicon and boron. The lab also studies the precise synthesis of organic polymers whose three-dimensional structures are highly controlled. From organic synthetic chemistry to polymer science and functional materials science, the lab seeks to open a new academic field that bridges disciplines.

Tomoki Ogoshi, Professor
0 student voices
The Functional Chemistry Lab (Ogoshi Lab) develops next-generation functional materials by designing molecules and assembling them. A supramolecule is an ordered assembly of multiple molecules held together by non-covalent forces such as hydrogen bonds. The lab designs functional molecules with simple, elegant structures and lets them self-assemble to create supramolecules with new functions. Founded in 2019, the lab aims for truly original research, with students and faculty enjoying experiments and discussion together.

Kenji Matsuda, Professor
0 student voices
The Physical Organic Chemistry Lab (Matsuda Lab) develops new organic functional materials that combine optical, magnetic, and electrical functions. The functions of organic molecules can be engineered through molecular design, and they are expected to play a major role in molecular electronics. The lab conducts broad research, from design and synthesis to measurement of physical properties. Its appeal lies in designing and creating new organic compounds yourself, and in carrying out agile research in a small group.

Naoki Ishida, Professor
0 student voices
The Organometallic Chemistry Lab (Ishida Lab) is an organic chemistry research group. The lab takes on the challenge of developing types of reactions never seen before, using light energy and other forms of energy as the driving force. It aims to create new groups of compounds and, in collaboration with researchers in neighboring fields, contribute to the advancement of science and technology. Students from other universities and other fields who wish to join the lab are also welcome.

Hiroaki Miki, Professor
0 student voices
The Biorecognition Chemistry Lab (Miki Lab) studies the mechanisms by which cancer cells become increasingly malignant. Most cancers arise from epithelial cells that are tightly attached to one another; as genetic mutations accumulate, the cells leave the epithelial layer, spread, and metastasize to other organs. Many mysteries remain about how cancer cells leave their tissue and invade neighboring tissue. The lab investigates this process using experimental animals such as mice and cultured mammalian cells.
