Spatial Order Research Team

We aim to investigate expression systems of advanced material properties at time scale of pico second order, imaging space distribution and spatial order of electron with nano meter scale. For this aim, we develop a measurement system of quantum spatial order which makes full use of very short pulse and high luminosity of SPring-8. Moreover, cooperating other 2 teams, we reveal molecular interaction from spin order, excitation order and spatial order of electrons. We aim to pioneer material science with synchrotron radiation and find a new way to design bottom-up material especially.
