Development of next-generation functional materials by design and assembly of molecules

Supramolecules refers to a molecule in which multiple molecules are assembled with regular structures by inter-molecular noncovalent interactions such as hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions. In our laboratory, we focus on development of supramolecules that exhibit new functions by designing and assembly of functional molecules with simple and beautiful structures. This laboratory was started from March 2019. Students and faculty members enjoy experiments and discussions together, and work hard to reach new original chemistry. Please visit the research page for more information.
