複合アニオン化合物の研究の魅力

抄録

Inorganic compounds such as oxides and nitrides are widely used in various industries including electronic devices, batteries, display and so on. However, despite the large number of constituent elements in these materials, the diversity of atomic coordination is severely limited, which gives constraints in materials design for next generation. In contrast, compounds with multiple anions beyond the single-anion, such as oxyhalides and oxyhydrides, provide a new materials platform which brings new degree of freedom for designing materials. Here, we overview the features, advantages and recent trends of mixed-anion compounds with our recent results of topochemical anion exchange reactions to form various mixed-anion oxides.
