experience that I have gained to learn and achieve more in this field. Weak localization is a physical effect which occurs in disordered electronic systems at very low temperatures. The effect manifests itself as a positive correction to the resistivity of a metal or semiconductor. The effect is quantum-mechanical in nature and has the following origin: In a disordered electronic system‚ the electron motion is diffusive rather than ballistic. That is‚ an electron does not move along a straight

then able to find the cross-section area using the following formula. A(y)=(pi/4)xD(y)^2. The resistance of wire also is related inversely to the diameter of said wire. The resistivity for copper varies with temperature. The resistance formula for a copper wire goes as follows: R=TxL/A. In this formula T equals resistivity; L equals length of wire‚ and A equals cross sectional area. Another major part of copper wires is their current carrying capacity. Not surprisingly the value of amps able to

The piezoresistive effect is given by (1 2 ) R R (1) where is the resistivity of the piezoresistor‚ depends on the doping concentration of the piezoresistors‚ ν is the Poisson’s ratio and is the mechanical strain induced in the diaphragm. The first part of the left hand side of equation 1 describes the piezoresistive effect and the second part defines the geometric effect. For piezoresistive materials like polysilicon‚ the piezoresistive effect dominates over geometric effect

ELECTRICITY I. DISCOVER OF ELECTRICITY About 600 B.C.‚ Thales‚ a Greek philosopher and scientist‚ observed that a piece of amber attracted small bits of “paper” or very thin wood shavings after it was rubbed with wool. He had discovered‚ in effect‚ static electricity. William Gilbert‚ an English scientist in the sixteenth century‚ found that many other different materials could be made to act like amber. Whenever these objects were rubbed against each other‚ they were able to attract each other

constant resistance (R) in a DC circuit to give the equation . In a gel electrophoresis set up‚ the gel itself acts as the resistor. Various materials have their own various resistivity values (ρ)‚ which is an inherent property of the material and therefore remains constant as long as the material remains constant. Resistivity can be used to calculate the resistance of a material using the equation where L is the length of the material and A is the cross-sectional area of the material (Cutnell &
