Hall Effect in n-Doped Semi-Conductor

The Hall Effect experiment (conducted by Edwin Hall in 1879) determines the sign of the charge carriers in current flow. The conductor is immersed in a magnetic field, causing the charge carriers to be deflected, creating an electric field. The direction of the electric field will depend on the sign of the charge carriers, and the polarity of the Hall voltage across the semiconductor reveals this sign.
