Overview of Research Group, Goals and Purposes:
The greatest merits of utilizing synchrotron radiation in crystal chemistry research are obtaining static and dynamic 3D structures and electron distribution of molecule and molecular aggregate in crystal with high accuracy and high resolution by using the X-ray diffraction method. The ecrystal chemistry research groupf aims to promote advanced research, development of measurement and analysis methods, and promotion of synchrotron radiation experiments as a basis of chemical research, especially as following subjects: 1. Crystal and local structure dynamics, and highly accurate analysis under stimuli 2. Direct observation of crystal and molecular structures and electronic state at excited, transient, and metastable states 3. PDF analysis: Local structure analysis 4. Electron density distribution analysis 5. Micro- to nano-meter size crystal: Single crystal structure analysis 6. Soft-materials: Ab-initio structure analysis 7. Crystalline organic-films: Ab-initio structure analysis 8. Powder diffraction: Structure and dynamics of molecular crystalline materials 9. Exploring new analysis methods by using cross-disciplinary BLs 10. Development of new research methods and activities for deepining chemical research at SPring-8-II.
