Kazuki Nakamura received his Ph.D. from Osaka University, Japan, for the study on photophysical properties of luminescent lanthanide(III) complexes in 2007. From 2007 to 2009, he worked at the Advanced Technology R&D Center, Mitsubishi Electric Corporation. Since April 2009, he has worked as an Assistant Professor in the Graduate School of Advanced Integration Science, Chiba University. In July 2015, he got promoted to Associate Professor in the same department. In 2017, he became an Associate Professor of the Graduate School of Engineering and became a full Professor in 2023. His research interest is focused on stimuli-responsive photoelectronic functional materials, especially based on lanthanide(III) compounds.
