KAMIYAMA Tadashi
- Position
- Professor
- Laboratory
- Physical Chemistry Laboratory
Biophysical Chemistry, Solution Chemistry
Research on elucidating the so-called “blueprint” and “operating manual” of proteins by understanding the nature of proteins under a variety of conditions (temperature, pressure, solvents, additives, etc.).
KITOH Hirotaka
- Position
- Associate Professor
SUZUKI Hal
- Position
- Associate Professor
- Laboratory
- Laboratory of condensed matter physical chemistry
Condensed Matter Physical Chemistry, Thermodynamics
Thermodynamics and dynamics of various molecular condensed materials are investigated by calorimetry and rheometry, in order to reveal their physical characters in the aggregate.
SEGUCHI Yasuhiro
- Position
- Associate Professor
- Laboratory
- Materials Physics Laboratory
Solid State Chemistry, Thin-Film Physics
Materials shrunk to the nanometer scale may exhibit unexpected structures and properties. Our research focuses on controlling the morphology of nanomaterials produced by physical/chemical vapor deposition techniques, and elucidating their distinctive properties.
MORISAWA Yusuke
- Position
- Associate Professor
- Laboratory
- Applied Spectrsocopy Laboratory
Physical Chemistry, Molecular Science, Spectroscopic Analysis, Molecular Spectroscopy
Researching photo-physics based on fundamental spectroscopy research. Also developing analytical methods by observing spectra to extract information such as the attributes and amounts of a substance based on the interaction of the substance with light.
TANAKA Atsuhiro
- Position
- Lecturer
