Our primary focus is to develop functional organic molecules and study material properties. We aim at the applications of chemical sensing, molecular switching and optoelectronics. The research flows through multi-step organic synthesis and extensive analytical characterization. The current research themes includes heterohelicenes, stimuli (light and redox)-responsive organic materials, and porous organic materials.
