Dear Abbas Abdullahi,

Sample Example (Just for Better Understanding):

The obtained surface roughness values ranges from, say 45 nm to 65 nm and should be used as an indicator to analyze the effects of morphology on functional properties. An increase in surface roughness, say was found to increase electrical resistivity due to a decrease in carrier mobility, leaving their concentration substantially unaffected and thus allowing to discuss the limitations in electrical transport due to morphology effects alone.

Optical properties were also influenced by surface roughness, especially in terms of light scattering: the haze factor, say was doubled in correspondence with a 50% increase in surface roughness, whereas the total transmittance was not significantly altered. Understanding these relations between morphology and functional properties can play an important role in optimization of flexible scattering transparent electrodes.

I hope I have answered your question.

With Best Wishes,

Thank you for your response Sir, but can we say that;

1-The rougher the film surface the higher the electrical resistivity, since carrier mobility is being affected?

2-The rougher the film surface the higher the haze factor?

Also what is'haze factor'?
