معرفی
KAJIYAMA, Satoshi is an Associate Professor at the Institute of Energy Informatics, WASEDA University, Japan. He holds a Ph.D. in Engineering from the University of Tokyo (2008) and specializes in biomineralization-inspired materials, liquid crystals, nanostructured composites, and electrochemical energy storage.
- Education: Ph.D. (Engineering) at the University of Tokyo (2006-2008), M.S. in Chemistry and Biotechnology at the University of Tokyo (2004-2006)
His research focuses on:
- Design of liquid-crystalline ion conductors for safe, high-voltage Li-ion batteries
- Development of MXene-based nanomaterials with enhanced Li/Na-ion accessibility for pseudocapacitors
- Biomineralization-inspired synthesis of organic-inorganic hybrids (e.g., CaCO3/chitin, hydroxyapatite/polymer)
- Structure control of thin films and nanorods via polymer templates
His work integrates computational modeling (molecular dynamics) with experimental techniques (X-ray absorption, Rheo-SANS) to optimize energy storage and biocompatible materials. Key trends include:
- Dynamic self-assembly of liquid crystals for responsive systems
- Engineering negative dielectric constants in confined water layers for capacitors
- One-dimensional MnOOH/CoOOH nanostructures for battery electrodes
Grants and projects include funding from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) and the Murata Science Foundation. He is affiliated with societies like the Japanese Liquid Crystal Society and Chemical Society of Japan.
