Experimental study of critical exponents of electrical conductivity in a two-dimensional continuum percolation system
1Department of Engineering Physics, Chubu University, Kasugai, Aichi, 487-8501, Japan.
Abstract:
In this paper an experimental study is presented for critical exponents of electrical conductivity in an inverse Swiss-cheese model. Filled circles are drawn on random positions of square paper in drawing ink with an X-Y plotter, and electrical resistance between both opposite sides is measured automatically by the use of general purpose interface bus system. Electrical conductivity is obtained from the inverse of the electrical resistance. Electrical conductivity in a bond process is also measured with the same system. It is confirmed that the critical exponent of electrical conductivity of a continuum two-dimensional inverse Swiss-cheese model is different from that of a discrete one.

Electrical Conductivity
In a practical conductor, an applied electric field may be sustained, causing a flow of electrons, which produce a current. The differential form of the current, the current density, is related to the electric field.
More generally, it is related to the force per unit charge, which involves the...
Theory of Metallic Conduction
In this theory, Newton's second law of motion is used to determine the acceleration of an electron in the presence of an applied electric field. Then, its velocity is expressed via this acceleration.
An electron moves through the crystal, containing positive ions,...
