6 Electric potential (1) The electric potential difference V ba is a work done by an external force to move a charge from point a to point b in an electric field divided by the amount of charge moved. V a and V b are the absolute potentials measured with respect to the reference potential at ground plane.

13 Introduction to electromagnetic material The properties of electromagnetic material is specified by , , . Homogeneous material is the material that possesses the same properties at every point in the material. Isotropic material is the material that its properties are independent of direction.
14
14 Conductor The material that electrons move freely. The conductivity, , depends on charge density and scattering of electrons by their interactions with crystal lattice. decreases with increasing temperature. Perfect conductor The conductor that has an infinite conductivity.
15
15 Current and current density Current, current density, resistance, and capacitance can be explained using electromagnetics. Current, I is defined as the amount of charge that passes through a reference plane in a given amount of time. Amperes (A) Current density, J is defined as the amount of current per unit area A/m2 total current can be expressed as
16
16 Current density and volume charge density Consider At time t, charges move for a distance x crossing a reference plane that is normal to the direction of charge movement. Since then where n x is a charge velocity (m/s) or The movement of charge creates “Convection current”.
17
17 Continuity of current The principle of conservation of charge “charges can be neither created nor destroyed, although equal amounts of positive and negative charge may be simultaneously created, obtained by separation, destroyed, or lost by recombination.” The integral form of the continuity equation, indicates an outward-flowing current where Q i is the charge inside the closed surface. We can show its point form as
18
18 Conduction current arises from free electrons in a conductor. Electrons in valence band have high enough energy to get into the conduction band. Conduction current
