Moving electrons

2008-06-16 1:52 am
When a current is conducted, is it true that the electrons only move at the outter layer of the metal? Why? Is it because of this, a thicker wire, increase circumferance, make the electrons easier to travel therefore less resistance? Thanks.

i think the density of electrons in conduction band is quite uniform, and not move at the outter layer. Because the positive ion background just cancel the columbic interaction.

increasing the thickness = increase the charge flux when applying the same voltage, thus lowering the resistance.

補充一下, charge flux 的意思,是電流的流量

imagine 10 athlete running on a field court, and are going to pass through a [gate]
if just 2 lane, each time the [flux] is 2, it is slower for all of them to pass,
if there is 5 lane, the [flux] becomes 5, they can finish with just two unit of time

Like charges repel. Free electrons are thus more abundant at metal surface.

Increasing the thickness of a wire defintely would decrease the resistance because more surface area for electrons to flow.
