Research Interests

The surface of materials possess unique characteristics which potentially may lead to novel functional properties. Our research is directed towards creating nanostructured surfaces and thin films with novel functions at solid-liquid interfaces, evaluating their microstructural and functional properties in nanometer scale, and also analyzing surface reactions in silicon wet device processes, from the view point of physical chemistry.
