Associate Professor

Ken ALBRECHT

Institute for Materials Chemistry and Engineering

Prof. Dr. Albrecht is an Associate professor (PI, tenuredsince 2023) at Institute for Materials Chemistry andEngineering, Kyushu University since 2019. He received
his doctoral degree from Keio University in 2010. In
2010 I was promoted as specially appointed assistantprofessor at the Chemical Resources Laboratory, Tokyo
Institute of Technology. In 2012, promoted as assistantprofessor at the same institute. From 2016, he served
concurrently as group leader of Yamamoto Atom
Hybrid Project until 2019. From 2018 he wasconcurrently appointed as JST-PRESTO Researcher until
2022. He established his own laboratory in Kyushu
University since 2019.
In the meantime, he received the 61st Polymer
Research Recital（Kobe), Young Scientist Lecture Awardin 2015. In 2016, he received Award for Encouragementof Research in Polymer Science from The Society ofPolymer Science, Japan. In 2017 he received Young
Scholar Lecture of CSJ (Chemical Society of Japan) 97th
annual meeting. In 2023, he received the Young
Scientists Award, The Commendation for Science andTechnology by the Minister of Education, Culture,Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT), JapanHis group conducts research going from the design andpreparation of new organic (dendrimer) materials fororganic electronics, luminescent materials, nanoparticle
synthesis, and supramolecular chemistry. He is also
working on organic active materials for Na-ion batteries,and development of electrostatic catalysis reactions.
These topics are focused on designing organic
materials related to photonics and electronics. From
2024, we have been selected for the JST-ASPIRE forrising scientists and are actively promoting international
joint research, mainly with U.K. and Germany.

ef ﬁcient light-emit ting materials suitable forfabricating organic light-emitting diode (OLED)
devices by printing or other solution processes.
OLED displays, such as smartphone displays, havebecome ubiquitous in our daily lives, but they are
cur rentl y f abr ic ated by e xpensi ve v acuum
deposition methods. If this can be achieved byprinting or other solution processes, it is expectedthat the energy consumption and other costs will
be greatly reduced. In this seminar, I will introduce
dendrimer-type light-emitting materials for OLED
applications.
