The Polymer Structure Laboratory at the Department of Life Science and Applied Chemistry, Nagoya Institute of Technology, conducts advanced research on nanostructure analysis of soft materials using X-ray and Neutron scattering and reflectometry combined with several analytical techniques. Utilizing different probes (X-rays and Neutrons) enable detailed structural analysis of multi-component polymeric materials. The use of multi-wavelength X-rays also enables component-sensitive and surface-sensitive structural analysis. In the future, I hope to advance this research toward more detailed spatial heterogeneity analysis by combining techniques such as X-ray absorption spectroscopy.
