| Comments |
We develop advanced highly-functional inorganic materials by using extraordinary or extremely severe reaction fields ranging from ultra-high vacuum to high-pressure high-temperature conditions. Our research strategy can be summarized as "Designing nanospaces, interfaces, and interstices in inorganic crystals and nanostructured materials." Areas of interest to us include new materials composed of inorganic molecules, porous composite materials for molecular adsorption and (photo)catalysis, superconductors, and magnetic materials. A review on K. Inumaru's study in English can be found in the article No. 1 in the Academic Papers listed below. |
