Research Group of Surface Chemistry (Yasuo Izumi Group)
Utilizing the reactiity of solid surface, sustainable chemistry is explored. If CO2 can be converted into fuels and/or raw chemicals by the irradiation of light, new carbon-neutral cycle is created. Such photocatalysts are developed and the photocatalysts are used in solar cell. In order to explore new surface reaction, it is ultimately important to understand dynamic, complex reaction steps on surface and then feedbak to the development of new surface reaction. The transformation of reactant molecle(s) is monitored by the state-of-the-art spectrscopy. e.g. IR is as well as surface sites to proceed such reaction steps are also monitored in real time by X-ray absorption spectroscopy, etc. It is also effective to analyze the reaction path using isotope-labelling while elementary reaction steps are also folled by density-functional theory calculations along the reactio coordinate.
