Farewell & welcome party
We had the farewell and welcome party at our familiar beer restaurant “Grow Stock” on Mar. 3. We enjoyed nice beer, food, and conversation with a lot of smile.
Research presentation
The research presentation in the Department of Chemistry was held on Feb. 27-28. Four students in our laboratory, Mr. Miyashita, Ms. Hara, Mr. Hayashi, and Mr. Fukui, gave their presentations of “Cavity transmission for polaritonic chemistry”, “Chirality recognition of molecular dimer”, “IR spectroscopy of dihydrogen-bonded clusters”, and “Dependence of dihydrogen bond strength on its angle”, respectively. We were pleased to enjoy nice presentations.
Defense of master’s thesis
Three students in our laboratory, Mr. Oyaide, Hayano, and Furukawa, gave their presentations to show fruitful results in defending the master’s thesis.
Start autumn-winter semester in 2024
We start our laboratory activity in the autumn-winter semester in 2024 today.
6th Workshop on Laser Spectroscopy
39th Symposium on Chemical Kinetics and Dynamics
We organized the 39th Symposium on Chemical Kinetics and Dynamics, which was held on Shizuoka City Culture Hall (Chairperson of the Committee was Prof. Shinnosuke Kawai). In this symposium, Mr. Oyaide (M2), Hayano (M2), and Furukawa (M2) gave poster presentations “Development of the optical cavity for observation of gas-phase vibrational polaritons”, “Study on hydrogen bonds of propargyl alcohol clusters by IR spectroscopy and quantum chemical calculations”, and “Development of the gas cell for observation of gas-phase vibrational polaritons”, respectively.
Grant-in-aid for scientific research
Our research proposal, “Study on the state of vibrational strong coupling in gas-phase molecules by IR spectroscopy and cavity-QED theory“, has been adopted for Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (B).
Start Spring-Summer Semester In 2024
We start our laboratory activity in the spring-summer semester in 2024 today.
Research presentation by undergraduate students
Three undergraduate students in our laboratory, Mr. Eiyu Mitsukawa, Ms. Haruka Nishimura, and Mr. Shintaro Koakutsu, had a research presentation for the Department of Chemistry. Their talk titles are “Simulation study on controlling optical cavity for vibrational strong coupling”, “Structural analysis of 2,5-dimethylpyrrole – water clusters by IR spectroscopy”, and “Structural analysis of 2,5-dimethylpyrrole – propylene oxide clusters by IR spectroscopy” by EM, HN, and SK, respectively.
