I am examining numerous properties, including optical properties, without actually carrying out experiments by performing molecular computation based on quantum chemistry. This approach makes it possible to understand the true nature of those properties and to discover the roots of the properties of the substances one wishes to investigate. Currently, my lab is focusing its research primarily on carbon substances such as fullerenes.
