Topics

Atmospheric Multiphase Chemistry

Elucidation of atmospheric processes in the gas-phase, liquid-phase and the interface.
Air Pollution and Biosurfaces

Elucidation of molecular-level mechanism of adverse health effects caused by atmospheric pollutants.
Inhomogeneity on/in Liquid Phases

Elucidation of the origin and properties of molecular-level inhomogeneity on/in liquid phases
Interface Chemistry and Physics

Study for the fundamental and applications of water’s interface

Welcome to the Enami lab! Using original experimental methods, we perform laboratory study for atmospheric multiphase chemistry, biosurface chemistry, molecular-level inhomogeneity on/in liquid phases, and interface chemistry and physics, etc. Research keywords: Molecular-level inhomogeneity, specific ion effects (Hofmeister effects), Fenton chemistry, Interfacial chemistry, microdroplets chemistry, lung/skin surface chemistry and so on.
