Abstract：
     The Research Center for Future Science and Technology was founded in 2013 in Graduate School of Engineering at Nagasaki University, with the objective of creating novel knowledge as well as developing advanced technology to meet the challenge of the next generation through strong collaboration with external researchers and engineers.  The center is actively promoting the collaboration between industries, academics and the government towards the construction of a strong research and development base that contributes to development both regionally and globally.  A representative related-research project of “Materials Science for Next-Generation Energy”, which was selected by the President and headquarters as a Priority Research of Nagasaki University, will be introduced here.

    Today, we are facing a severe challenge-global warming and climate change due to the consumption of fossil fuels for energy.  The greenhouse gas emissions are mainly derived from the transportation sector and electricity power generation.  Therefore, a global solution must involve a dramatic move to renewable energy.  The research project highlights the development of innovative energy devices such as high power and energy batteries and new CO2 reduction and transformation technologies on the basis of materials science.  Here I will focus on recent nanostructure-controlled electrode materials of capacitors and Li-ion batteries from the aspects of enhancement of electrochemical charge-discharge properties. In addition, I will refer to a newly developed Na-ion battery because urgent concerns over lithium sources have focused recent attention on Na-ion batteries owing to the abundance and low cost of sodium.
