Summary on Grant Application Form
The discovery of new materials with outstanding properties motivates much of modern chemistry, physics and materials science. New materials with novel functionalities are also strongly demanded for developing future information and energy technologies. The general aim of our collaboration project is to discover new oxides having interesting and useful properties. Strong collaboration of materials synthesis teams and structure characterization teams will lead to development of "strategic solid-state chemistry".

This collaborative team consists of the following investigators;

Principal Investigator:

Prof. Yuichi Shimakawa (Japan)

Institute for Chemical Research, Kyoto University

Overseas Lead Investigators:

Prof. J. Paul Attfield (UK)

Centre for Science at Extreme Conditions and School of Chemistry, University of Edinburgh.

Prof. Werner Paulus (France)

Institute Charles Gerhardt, University of Montpellier 2

Prof. Hidenori Takagi (Germany)

Max-Planck-Institute for solid state research, Stuttgart

Prof. Ru-Shi Liu (Taiwan)

Department of Chemistry, National Taiwan University

Other Japanese groups (Hiroi, Tokyo and Kageyama, Kyoto) will also participate.

Approx. 50 people from these groups will be involved, and many more collaborators and interested scientists will have the opportunity to participate in meetings run by this consortium.
