Project

This project of fundamental exploratory research aims at the development of next-generation functional organic materials through creation of "Degenerate π-Integrated Solids". The research team gathers together three groups of highly complementary view points and expertise, i.e., A. π-Integrated frameworks, B. Strongly correlated π-systems and C.π-Integrated devices, and, through the intimate collaboration reinforced by continuous theoretical feedback, carries out ground-breaking studies for innovation in the academic and industrial research of molecular entities.

  • Group A: π-Integrated Framework

    Group A of this project aims at the development of methods to create organic solids comprising of π-integrated frameworks with advancing methods of supramolecular and coordination chemistry.

  • Group B: Strongly Correlated π-Systems

    Group B of this project aims at the discovery of new light-element superconducting materials through designing degenerate π-integrated solids.

  • Group C: π-Integrated Devices

    Group C of this project aims at the development of functional organic electronic devices incorporating degenerate π-systems wishing to explore industrial applications and futuristic functions.

  • Allied group X: Cross-disciplinary Theoretical Development

    Group X, with theoretical physics expertise, will reveal the physics of new materials and facilitate the mutual feedback with all experimental groups by providing the theoretical background for further development.
