Toshiya Fukunaga

Toshiya Fukunaga is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemistry at The University of Tokyo, affiliated with both the Department of Chemistry (UG) and the Department of Chemistry (GR) as well as the Graduate School of Science. His research focuses on physical organic chemistry, particularly the structural chemistry of nanocarbon molecules. His current research interests include nanocarbon, macrocycle, nanotube, and chirality. He can be contacted via email at t.fukunaga@chem.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp.

Toshiya M. Fukunaga is a researcher at The University of Tokyo, specializing in Organic Chemistry. His work focuses on the synthesis and characterization of complex nanocarbon structures, including phenine nanotubes, twisted Möbius carbon nanobelts, and expanded helicenes. He explores the design and properties of chiral nanocarbon molecules, with an emphasis on their supramolecular interactions and chiroptical behavior. His research also involves the development of synthetic strategies for creating highly functionalized carbon frameworks and the application of computational methods, such as Bayesian inference, to analyze supramolecular systems. His contributions span both synthetic and theoretical approaches to understanding the structure and reactivity of nanocarbon materials.
