In Europe and Japan, government-funded demonstration projects are being actively pursued as a method of direct stimulation of the PV industry. 

On his return home in 1911, Honda was appointed professor of physies at the new Tohoku Imperial University in Sendai, in the north of Japan this institution had been established only in 1906, when the finance minister twisted the arm of an industrialist who had made himself unpopular because of pollution eaused by his copper mines and extracted the necessary funds to build the new university. A provisional institute of physical and chemical research was initiated in 1916, divided into a part devoted to novel plastics and another to metals. This proved to be Honda s lifetime domain he assembled a lively team of young physicists and chemists. In the same year, Honda invented a high-cobalt steel also containing tungsten and chromium, which had by far the highest coercivity of any permanent-magnet material then known. He called it KS steel, for K. Sumitomo, one of his sponsors, and it made Honda famous. 

Established in 1946, with a subscribed capital fund of 7.67 million, the primary mission of the World Bank is to combat poverty by securing low cost funding for sustainable development. The largest shareholder is the U.S., followed by the United Kingdom, Japan, Germany, and Eranee. 

The amount of research and developmentin CVD is considerable in the U. S. and abroad, not only in industry but al so in universities and in many of the maj or government laboratories. Government sponsorship in most countries remains an important factor either in terms of funding or as a research leader. Organizations such as the Department of Defense (DOD), the Department of Energy (DOE), andNASAintheU.S., MITI and MRIM in Japan, CNRS in Franee, and others el sewhere, pi ay leading roles in the development of CVD.

Studies related to the mechanisms of nitric oxide reactions with transition metal complexes in this laboratory were supported by grants from the U.S. National Science Foundation, by a Collaborative UC/Los Alamos National Laboratory Research grant, by a grant from the U.S. Japan Cooperative Research Program (Photoconversion/ Photosynthesis) (NSF INT 9116346), and by a grant from the ACS Petroleum Research Fund. We thank the students and postdoctoral fellows at UC Santa Barbara who participated in this research and acknowledge collaborative studies with Dr. David Wink (National Cancer Institute, Bethesda MD, USA), Dr. Mikio Hoshino (RIKEN, Wako-shi, Japan) and Dr. Jon Schoonover (Los Alamos National Laboratory).

The present work of T.T. and T.M. is partially supported by the Japanese Grant-in-Aid for Scienhhc Research Fund of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (11640272, 13640282), and by the REIMEI Research Resources of Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute (JAERI). 

In Japan, being completely dependant on fossil fuels imports, a long tradition exists in developing stationary and mobile fuel cell applications. Programs funded by the NEDO and METI departments have already resulted in hundreds of small scale micro Combined Heat and Power Units as well as fuel cell vehicles running in road demonstrations [4]. 

The damage caused by atomic bombardments of US forces was so serious in all parts of Japan that functions of schools and universities were almost completely stopped. No research work was possible to continue for several years after the World War II. Very limited budgets were provided to universities and no research funds were available. Equipments were damaged and chemical materials were not supplied to laboratories. Even foods and clothes were not sufficient and everyone in Japan was hungry. Japan was fully controlled trader US forces. 

The countries involved in existing research efforts are those that follow a more technology oriented approach in their national climate policy, including the US, Canada, Japan, Norway, the Netherlands, Australia, plus a number of EU Member States and the EU itself, which is funding a number of ongoing projects. 

METI Much of Japan s hydrogen and fuel cell program is guided and funded by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI). 

These precedents of silylcarbonylation made Matsuda and his co-workers hesitate to verify this route because intensive financial support for the research of -chemistry in Japan has ended. Fascination to create a new reaction and acquisition of a small fund to purchase a pressure bottle, however, prompted them to embark on exploration of this synthetic plan without any chart. Thus, diphenylacetylene 2 and triethylsilane in almost equal amounts were allowed to interact in the presence of 3mol% of Rh4(GO)i2 and Et3N under GO pressure (20 atm) as the first trial. The isolated products turned out to be 3 (85%, Z = 90 10) and 4 (10%) (Equation (1)).
