Best Poster Presentation Award

We have successfully synthesized the new aluminum oxycarbide, which have been expected to have properties different from conventional oxides and carbides. In addition, X-ray powder diffraction and scanning transmission electron microscope enabled us to detemine the atom arrangement and analyze light elements such as carbon and oxygen.
