Research Introduction

Research that creates the future through the power of "chemistry" at the two departments of the Faculty of Chemistry, Materials and Bioengineering. We introduce it with the voices of students who are actually engaged in research.

CHEMISTRY & MATERIALS ENGINEERING

Development of Ultra-High Sensitivity EUV Resist Materials
―Technology that Will Change the Future of Semiconductors―

Circuit miniaturization of semiconductors that supports the performance improvement of electronic devices such as smartphones. This research aims to develop "resist materials" that are highly sensitive to extreme ultraviolet light (light with a wavelength of 13.5 nm) and to significantly improve the performance and production efficiency of semiconductors. By using "special structure molecules" to overcome sensitivity to light, many companies are paying attention to this technology as one that will change the future of semiconductor development.

Why did you choose this department?
I enrolled to study chemistry, where experimental results are easy to see. I chose this department because I became interested in "ionic liquids" that are applied to space fields.
Future goals
After graduation, I will work as a technical engineer in semiconductor development. Since many people in the workplace come from physics or mechanical engineering backgrounds, I want to do work that only I can do by utilizing the knowledge of chemistry I learned at university.

LIFE SCIENCE & BIOTECHNOLOGY

Artificial Synthesis of Bacteriophage
Infecting Bifidobacterium

Research to clarify the function of Bifidobacterium by removing it from the intestine and examining the changes that occur there. The goal is to artificially create "phage", a virus that attacks specific bacteria, from genes. Since it is research dealing with living organisms, it is a continuous trial and error, but I am developing the ability to conduct research efficiently.

Why did you choose this department?
Since I was a child, I loved playing in nature and river creatures. I chose this department to study environmental purification and microorganisms that lead to the conservation of nature and living organisms.
Future goals
My goal is to further advance my research in graduate school, and beyond that, to be involved in research and development in industries such as food and pharmaceuticals.
