Hall effect
(redirected from Hall effects)

    Also found in: Encyclopedia, Wikipedia, Hutchinson 0.02 sec.
Hall effect
n.
Generation of an electric potential perpendicular to both an electric current flowing along a conducting material and an external magnetic field applied at right angles to the current upon application of the magnetic field.
[After Edwin Herbert Hall (1855-1938), American physicist.]
Hall effect
n
(Physics / General Physics) the production of a potential difference across a conductor carrying an electric current when a magnetic field is applied in a direction perpendicular to that of the current flow
[named after Edwin Herbert Hall (1855-1938), American physicist who discovered it]
Hall effect  (hôl)
A phenomenon that occurs when an electric current moving through a conductor is exposed to an external magnetic field applied at a right angle, in which an electric potential develops in the conductor at a right angle to both the direction of current and the magnetic field. The Hall effect is a direct result of Lorentz forces acting on the charges in the current, and is named after physicist Edwin Herbert Hall (1855-1938).
