Popovic (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology The Swiss Federal Institute of Technology may refer to one of two institutes of higher education in Switzerland: - ETH Zurich in Zurich
- École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne in Lausanne
) describes the
physics and technology of semiconductor devices exploiting the Hall
effect, commonly used as magnetic field sensors and as a means for
characterizing semiconductors. Popovic summarizes the basic physical
effects Physical effects is the term given to a sub-category of special effects in which mechanical or physical effects are recorded. Physical effects are usually planned in preproduction and created in production. and their application, and the basics of semiconductor physics.
He then examines galvanomagnetic effects and the basic properties of
Hall plates and magnetoresistors, Hall magnetic sensors, and Hall
devices as means for characterizing semiconductors. He continues by
describing magnetic-sensitive field-effect and bipolar devices and
closes by comparing Hall sensors with other galvanomagnetic gal·va·no·mag·net·ic adj. Of or relating to the generation of an electric field by a magnetic field in semiconductors and metals. sensors. His
appendices include information on physical constants and mathematical
relations. Distributed in the US by AIDC (Automatic Identification and Data Collection or Capture) Capturing data electronically by scanning bar codes or alphanumeric codes (OCR, MICR), by reading magnetic stripes or by wireless means. See AIM, bar code and RFID. .
