Research summary
AI-generated

Sanket Samal's research focuses on organic and polymer-based electronic materials, particularly conjugated polymers used in flexible electronics, sensors, and bioelectronic interfaces. Work includes designing polymers with tailored molecular structure (such as tacticity, side-chain length, and chain order) to control how well they conduct electricity and ions, as well as applications like gas sensors and wearable 'iono-electronic' devices. The research combines polymer chemistry, materials characterization (including crystal structure determination), and studies of charge transport properties.
