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
