The potential of next-generation quantum devices realized with organic materials.
Keywords: organic conductors, quantum spin liquids, superconductivity
Organic materials, such as plastics, are ubiquitous in our surroundings, but they typically do not conduct electricity. However, in the past 50 years, rapid advancements in material development have established the field of organic electronics, making these materials, which excel in flexibility and lightweight properties, essential to modern society. In my research, I focus on using organic materials not only to conduct electricity but also to explore phenomena that are difficult to understand within traditional physics, such as materials that exhibit zero electrical resistance known as superconductors, quantum spin liquids, charge glasses, and Dirac electron systems. These properties are believed to involve electron correlations and characteristic electronic structures, harboring unknown physics, with potential applications in next-generation technologies like quantum computers and energy-efficient devices. In my regular research, I combine molecular synthesis techniques with precise physical property measurement techniques, advancing research with innovative ideas at the boundary of chemistry and physics that have not been explored before, in order to discover organic materials that surpass conventional performance and new physical phenomena.
