Research Interest

Our research interest is focused on “Understanding of molecular functions and designing new molecules”. We have applied computational approaches to understand molecular functions observed experimentally in several subjects such as fluorescence sensors, electrochromic materials and CO2 absorption mechanism, and especially on “2D Materials and Biomolecules”. We have studied on organic magnetic materials and developed design strategy to build ferromagnetic magnetic molecules. Also, various materials such as MoS2, graphyne, TiO2 are under research. Our group have also experienced with molecular dynamics simulation which is useful to understand the properties of biomolecules such as enzyme and proteins.
