Phase transition dynamics of polymers and soft matter
Soft matters, such as polymers, liquid crystal, colloids, gels, and proteins, have complex structures due to their high degree of internal freedom, forming hierarchical structures. We are interested in non-equilibrium processes of soft matters, such as the crystallization process, phase transition, and glass transition, and are promoting their research using experimental methods such as X-ray scattering measurements, light scattering measurements, thermal measurements, and optical microscopy observations.
