Nanochemistry involves the design, manipulation, and characterization of materials at the nanoscale, where quantum effects and large surface-to-volume ratios significantly alter chemical behavior. Researchers in this field explore how nanoparticles, nanoclusters, and nanostructured materials can be synthesized with precise control over size, shape, surface functionality, and composition. These materials often…

Supramolecular chemistry focuses on the creation of complex molecular architectures through non-covalent interactions such as hydrogen bonding, van der Waals forces, π–π stacking, host–guest interactions, and metal coordination. Instead of forming new covalent bonds, this field studies how molecules organize and communicate with one another to form higher-order structures. These…

Photocatalysis investigates chemical transformations driven by light-activated catalysts, enabling solar-to-chemical energy conversion. By using semiconductors, metal–organic frameworks, or plasmonic nanostructures, photocatalytic systems harness photons to generate charge carriers that initiate redox reactions. This field plays a critical role in sustainable chemistry, environmental remediation, and renewable energy. Typical works in this…

Polymer chemistry is the study of the synthesis, characterization, and modification of macromolecules. Polymers form the backbone of modern materials science, ranging from plastics and elastomers to biomaterials and stimuli-responsive “smart polymers.” Research explores how polymer architecture, monomer selection, and polymerization techniques influence material properties and performance. Typical works in…

Water structure research examines the molecular organization and dynamic hydrogen-bonding network of water. As one of the most anomalous and life-essential substances, water exhibits unusual physical and chemical behaviors that influence biological processes, solvation chemistry, electrochemistry, and environmental interactions. Understanding its structure at different scales is critical for fields from…

Electrochemistry centers on the study of electron-transfer reactions occurring at solid–liquid or solid–solid interfaces. This field underpins modern energy storage systems, sensors, industrial synthesis, and corrosion science. Researchers develop new electrode materials, electrolytes, and electrochemical methods to improve efficiency, selectivity, and sustainability. Typical works in this area include:

Energy research encompasses the discovery and optimization of materials and processes that enable greener, more efficient production, conversion, and storage of energy. This multidisciplinary area integrates chemistry, materials science, physics, and engineering to address global energy challenges and transition toward sustainable systems.
