| Outline of Research at the Start |
We will study high performance photochromic terarylenes and their photoreactions to develop more efficient solar technologies. These are susceptible to radical chain reactions that result in many molecules responding to an initial trigger. The development towards X-ray detection will be carried out.

| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This grant focused on three research areas (A-C). A - Optimization of the cascade reaction: Analysis of two generations of in total 13 molecules complete with photophysical, thermal and electrochemical analysis. All compounds were prepared and tested as planned B - Studies of the cascade reaction in plastic/solid media: This part of the project was expanded from polymers and gels to also include other media such as micelles and pickering emulsions in conjunction with the Kawai laboratory at NAIST. With the conclusion of my research position this part of the research topic will be continued in conjunction with Dr. Louis in NAIST. C - Expansion of frameworks towards detection of X-rays: Generation two containing 8 targets designed to increase X-Ray absorption were prepared and fully characterized. With the conclusion of my research position this part of the research topic will be continued in conjunction with Dr. Louis in NAIST. A number of papers in these areas have been published.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
このプロジェクトでは、低濃度でのX線検出に使用する新しい分子の開発に成功した。合計13の分子を調製し、X線検出能力をテストしました。その結果、これらの化合物は、ポリマー、ゲル、液体溶液など、さまざまな媒体で使用され、新しい高感度安全装置の開発が可能になります。この研究は、私が奈良から横浜に赴任した後も、NAISTのM.Louis博士と協力して継続されます。
