What are the  Applications of Hall Effect ?

Hall Effect Definition

The Hall effect is defined as the deflection of charge carriers in a current-carrying conductor when placed in a magnetic field.

Determine the Type of Semiconductor

The direction of the Hall voltage helps identify if a semiconductor is n-type or p-type.

Calculate the Carrier Concentration

The Hall effect is used to find the concentration of electrons and holes in a semiconductor.

Determine the Mobility (Hall Mobility)

The Hall coefficient helps calculate the mobility of electrons and holes.

Commercial Applications of Hall Effect

Hall-effect sensors and probes measure magnetic fields and are used in various devices.
