Abstract
From Introduction:
In 1878, Hall found that the stream lines of an electric current in a metallic conductor were distorted when the conductor was placed in an external magnetic field. This distortion arises from an electric field set up at right angles to the current and to the magnetic field. The effect is well known in conductors and semiconductors, for both steady state and low frequencies Figure 1-1 illustrates the polarities of the Hall voltage for Ix in the direction of conventional current flow.
