Spencer Yeager

Spencer Yeager is a Ph.D. student studying Analytical Chemistry in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of Arizona. Prior to arriving in Tucson, he received a B.S. in Chemistry and Minor in Information Science and Technology from Temple University in Philadelphia, PA. His current research involves understanding electron transfer at organic semiconductor interfaces, where he primarily uses electrochemical and spectroscopic techniques. Understanding these processes can help set design guidelines for fabricating better performing energy generation and storage technologies. Spencer believes that these materials, which are low cost, printable, and environmentally friendly, will be the key to making renewable energy and energy storage accessible to everyone, and lead to a more sustainable future.
