We present our latest results on near- to mid-infrared observations of supernovae within one year after the explosion with Infrared Camera (IRC) on board AKARI. In this project, we aim to explore the dust formation scenario in the ejecta of core-collapse supernovae. So far, observations of several recent supernovae including SN2006jc and SN2008ax have been carried out as part of the Directors Time of AKARI. At the same time, we have set about the near-infrared slit-less spectroscopic observations of nearby galaxies with high supernovae frequency in preparation for a future supernova in the AKARI Phase-3 Open Time Program “Near-infrared Slit-less Spectroscopy of Nearby Galaxies; Waiting for Supernovae Momentarily (NEWSY)” (P.I. Sakon, I.). The obtained near- to mid-infrared spectral energy distribution (SED) of early-time supernovae is quite valuable and unique to investigate the properties of dust formed around the massive star and will further deepen our knowledge on the origin of dust especially in the early universe.
