WordDefinition
ettingshausen effectnoun(physics) A thermoelectric or thermomagnetic phenomenon that affects the electric current in a conductor when a magnetic field is present. When applying a current (along the y-axis) and a perpendicular magnetic field (along the z-axis) a temperature gradient appears along the x-axis.
hall coefficientnoun(physics) With regard to the Hall effect: the ratio of the induced electric field to the product of the current density and the applied magnetic field.
hall voltagenoun(physics) The voltage generated by the Hall effect.
magnetoresistivitynoun(physics) The effect of an applied magnetic field on the resistivity of a material carrying a current
gyromagnetic effectnoun(physics) an effect that arises from the relation between the angular momentum and the magnetization of a magnetic substance
induced currentnounAn electric current due to variation in the magnetic field surrounding its conductor.
electromagnetic inductionnounThe production of an electrical potential difference in a conductor situated in a changing magnetic flux.
skin effectnoun(physics) The tendency of an alternating current to distribute itself in a conductor such that the current density is greater near the surface than near the core.
photoelectromagnetic effectnoun(physics) The generation of an electric current in an intermetallic semiconductor in a magnetic field by the action of light.
seebeck effectnoun(physics) the thermodynamic effect by which heat being passed through a thermocouple is converted into electricity
inductionnounAn act of inducting.
quantum hall effectnoun(quantum mechanics) An effect marked by the quantization of the Hall resistance, observed in two-dimensional electron systems subjected to low temperatures and strong magnetic field.
magnetoresistancenoun(physics) The change of electrical resistance produced in a conductor or semiconductor on application of a magnetic field.
magnetoconductivitynoun(physics) The ability to conduct a magnetic field.
einstein–de haas effectnoun(physics) A physical phenomenon in which a change in the magnetic moment of a free body causes the body to rotate, as a consequence of the conservation of angular momentum.
induction heatingnounThe heating of an electrical conductor by eddy currents induced by a varying magnetic field.
magnetoelectricitynoun(physics) electricity produced magnetically
biefeld-brown effectnounAn electrical phenomenon that produces an ionic wind that transfers its momentum to surrounding neutral particles, observed on an asymmetric capacitor when high voltage is applied to the electrodes.
eddy currentnoun(physics) An induced electric current formed within the body of a conductor when it is exposed to a time varying magnetic field; used in induction heating and in some braking and damping systems.
magnetostrictionnoun(physics) the change of length or shape of a ferromagnetic material when it is magnetized
