● Shinichi ENAMI Associate Professor
Research Interests:
Physical Chemistry, Atmospheric and Environmental Chemistry
Research Topic:
Understanding of the reaction mechanisms at the gas/liquid interface in atmospheric and environmental chemistry
Short Introduction
Shinichi Enami received a PhD degree from Kyoto University in 2006 and moved to Caltech as a posdoc working with Dr. A .J. Colussi and Prof. Michael R. Hoffmann until 2011. He has been fascinated by interfacial chemistry. The gas/liquid interface is a unique media that should be distinguished from the gas or liquid phases. For example, OH- is more abundant than H3O+ at the air/water interface of neat water (pH = 7), indicating water’s surface is effectively alkaline. This mysterious phenomenon, recognized since more than 100 years ago, was partly unraveled by him and his coworkers in these days. The mechanisms of reactions at the gas/liquid interface, which play various, and essential, roles in atmosphere and living system, will be unraveled by developing a new experimental method. The goal of this project is an understanding for the true nature of the interface.
