  6. Slide from Class 13, June Current 30, 2014 If dQ is the amount of charge passes through A in a short time interval dt, current is defined as: dQ I  dt Units of current: Ampere (A)  C/s These two kinds of currents are actually different! I ‐ + ‐ + Electrically these two cases produce the same current, but they can be distinguished with a magnetic field.

  7. Equal Current with Opposite Carriers v d ‐ v d + These two cases produce the same current, but can be distinguished with a magnetic field by Hall effect.

  8. Application of Hall Effect IB  V H  n e t 1. Hall effect can be used to measure magnetic field. 2. Hall effect can be used to measure the carrier density n. 3. Hall effect can determine the sign of the carriers. 4. (Quantum) Hall effect provides an international standard of resistance.

  9. Class 32. Sources of magnetic fields

  10. Origin of Magnetic field A current (or moving charge) experience a magnetic force when it is in a magnetic field. The magnetic field is the result of another current (or moving charge). If electric field describes the interaction between two charges, then magnetic field describes the interaction between two currents (or moving charges). Magnetic field of a solenoid Magnetic field due to a long current

  11. Properties of field lines I magnetic field 1. To visualize the electric field, we draw field Small bar magnet lines. When we put a positive test charge in the magnetic field electric field, the force acting on it will be tangent to the field line at that point. The magnitude of the force will be proportional to the density of field lines at that point. +q F (weaker) +q F (stronger) magnetic field electric field

  12. Properties of field lines II magnetic field 2. Electric field lines are continuous lines only terminate at charges or at infinity. 3. When an electric field line terminate at charges, it always comes out from a positive charge, or getting into a negative charge. 4. Field lines never cross each other.

  13. Consequences of non-existence of magnetic charge (monopole) 1. Field lines terminate at point charges, so magnetic field lines either terminate at infinity, or form loops. N Actually S 2. Gauss’s Law:            E d A Q B d A 0 0 enclosed Electric field Magnetic field

  14. Maxwell’s Equations Maxwell’s equations describe all the properties of electric and magnetic fields and there are four equations in it: Integral form Differential form Name of equation (optional) 1 st Equation    Electric          E d A Q E Gauss’s Law 0 enclosed 0 2 nd Equation   Magnetic       B  B d A 0 Gauss’s Law 0 3 rd Equation Not yet 4 th Equation Not yet Lorentz force equation is not part of Maxwell’s equations. It describes what happens when charges are put in an electric or magnetic fields:        F (q E v B )
