Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Yasser Zaffar"
- Yasser Zaffar's recent research focuses on the synthesis and analysis of polythiophenes, particularly investigating how variations in side chain density and polymer alignment affect their thermoelectric performance.
- The study, published in "Chem Mater," provides insights into the electrical and thermoelectric properties of both aligned and non-aligned thin films of these polymers, exploring their behavior in neutral and chemically doped states.
- Findings indicate that lower side chain density leads to a reduced overall order in the thin films, with this conclusion supported by both optical and diffraction measurements, as well as polarized optical experiments.
