Czechoslovak Journal of Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

The emf which is produced on illuminating a homogeneous semiconductor located in a non-homogeneous magnetic field is calculated. It is shown that this emf is composed of two parts — bulk and boundary. Further, there are given the results of experiments carried out on indium antimonide by means of which the conclusions of the theory were verified.
