Field of Studies

Polymer Chemistry, Photochemistry, Organic Synthesis

Development of three-dimensionally-arranged π-conjugated materials and studied their specific optical and physical properties based on structure and chirality.
Development of light-absorptive and emissive π-conjugated materials focused on unique nature of heteroatoms.
Development of organic–inorganic hybrid materials based on a polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) with radially-integrated luminophores
