Hall Effect LL8 Section 22
Inverse formula • Resistivity tensor
Math arguments repeat • First term is ordinary Ohm’s law • Second term gives Hall effect • The axial vector b • dual to bik • Linear in H for small H
Symmetry: All tensors that characterize an isotropic medium must be invariant under all rotations about H
Likewise, symmetric parts of conductivity and resistivity tensors must be invariant under rotations about H
Next terms in expansion of rikjk must be • quadratic in H, • linear in j, • And be a vector • Only possible combinations of H & J are
