Research Overview
We study liquid materials ranging from elemental to polymer systems. We study the selective absorption phenomena of low molecules into the angstrom-scale pores in polymer crystals by infrared spectroscopy, x-ray and neutron diffraction. We aim to find physics and basics behind the phenomena and we also set out to develop industrial applications. We focus our attention to entropy-driven effective force such as depletion interaction.
