... charge +Q is at the left. Near the two charges the equipotential surfaces are spheres, and the field lines are normal to the metal sphere at the sphere’s surface. Very far from both charges, the equipotential surfaces and field lines approach those of a point charge 2Q located at the midpoint. ...

Upon finding that low densities of depletion charge yield only a unidirectional Pf in thin films, we focus on the densities that do trigger domains in thick structures (>10 nm).

... The SI unit of electric current is the ampere (symbol A). The SI unit of charge is the coulomb (symbol C). One coulomb passes a point in a circuit each second when the current is one ampere. The direction of electric current is conventionally shown as from positive to negative, which is the directio ...

Electric charge



Electric charge is the physical property of matter that causes it to experience a force when placed in an electromagnetic field. There are two types of electric charges: positive and negative. Positively charged substances are repelled from other positively charged substances, but attracted to negatively charged substances; negatively charged substances are repelled from negative and attracted to positive. An object is negatively charged if it has an excess of electrons, and is otherwise positively charged or uncharged. The SI derived unit of electric charge is the coulomb (C), although in electrical engineering it is also common to use the ampere-hour (Ah), and in chemistry it is common to use the elementary charge (e) as a unit. The symbol Q is often used to denote charge. The early knowledge of how charged substances interact is now called classical electrodynamics, and is still very accurate if quantum effects do not need to be considered.The electric charge is a fundamental conserved property of some subatomic particles, which determines their electromagnetic interaction. Electrically charged matter is influenced by, and produces, electromagnetic fields. The interaction between a moving charge and an electromagnetic field is the source of the electromagnetic force, which is one of the four fundamental forces (See also: magnetic field).Twentieth-century experiments demonstrated that electric charge is quantized; that is, it comes in integer multiples of individual small units called the elementary charge, e, approximately equal to 6981160200000000000♠1.602×10−19 coulombs (except for particles called quarks, which have charges that are integer multiples of e/3). The proton has a charge of +e, and the electron has a charge of −e. The study of charged particles, and how their interactions are mediated by photons, is called quantum electrodynamics.
