Electrical properties as a research area encompass the systematic study of how materials and systems respond to electric fields, currents, and charges, with emphasis on quantifiable parameters such as conductivity, permittivity, dielectric strength, resistivity, mobility, and impedance. This field investigates charge transport mechanisms (electronic, ionic, or mixed), polarization processes, interfacial phenomena, and frequency- and temperature-dependent behavior across metals, semiconductors, insulators, and complex materials (e.g., polymers, composites, biomaterials). Research typically involves experimental characterization, modeling, and device-oriented optimization, underpinning advances in microelectronics, energy storage and conversion, sensors, and emerging electronic and optoelectronic technologies.
