Dr Mohammad Ghaffar Faraj the instructor in Physics Department in Faculty of Science and Health in our university has published a paper entitled “Impedance Spectroscopy as a Novel Approach to Probe the Phase Transition and Microstructures Existing in CS:PEO Based Blend Electrolytes”  The most outcomes of the research were (The objective of this work is to show how the change of phase transition can be studied from the pattern of DC conductivity versus 1000/T. Furthermore, an obvious increase of crystalline phase as a consequence of an increase of various amounts of PEO to CS-based electrolyte has also predicted from the impedance plots)
