Research Abstract |
The purpose of the present project is to develop a new research area called molecular physical chemistry by theoretical chemistry in collaboration with experimental chemistry. We are aiming at the molecular design and the control of chemical reactions leaded by theoretical chemistry. We continued, our research in the following four directions : (I) development' of new ab initio electronic structure theory and simulations, (ii) application and development of reaction dynamics, (iii) designing of new molecular systems with functionarls, and (iv) control of chemical reactions using computational chemistry. We have enjoyed good progress in each of the above areas. We are very excited about our discoveries of new theory and new chemistry and we would like to share this, enthusiasm with others. We also organized two international symposiums during the research period.
