  2. Displacement current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Displacement_current

    Next, this displacement current is related to the charging of the capacitor. Consider the current in the imaginary cylindrical surface shown surrounding the left plate. A current, say I, passes outward through the left surface L of the cylinder, but no conduction current (no transport of real charges) crosses the right surface R.

  3. Ampère's circuital law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampère's_circuital_law

    The second term on the right hand side is the displacement current as originally conceived by Maxwell, associated with the polarization of the individual molecules of the dielectric material. Maxwell's original explanation for displacement current focused upon the situation that occurs in dielectric media.

  4. Electric current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_current

    In other media, any stream of charged objects (ions, for example) may constitute an electric current. To provide a definition of current independent of the type of charge carriers, conventional current is defined as moving in the same direction as the positive charge flow. So, in metals where the charge carriers (electrons) are negative ...

  5. Current density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_density

    In electromagnetism, current density is the amount of charge per unit time that flows through a unit area of a chosen cross section. [1] The current density vector is defined as a vector whose magnitude is the electric current per cross-sectional area at a given point in space, its direction being that of the motion of the positive charges at this point.

  6. Electrical susceptance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_susceptance

    Conduction current is related to moving charge carriers (electrons, holes, ions, etc.), while displacement current is caused by time-varying electric field. Carrier transport is affected by electric field and by a number of physical phenomena, such as carrier drift and diffusion, trapping, injection, contact-related effects, and impact ionization.

  7. Rosser's equation (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosser's_equation_(physics)

    Rosser's Equation is given by the following: + = = where: is the conduction-current density, is the transverse current density, is time, and is the scalar potential.. To understand Selvan's quotation we need the following terms: is charge density, is the magnetic vector potential, and is the displacement field.

  8. Talk:Displacement current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Displacement_current

    We can also imaging a wacky case C, where the surface of integration passes through the plate so that parts of the surface have conduction current and parts have displacement current. So, it is not necessary that either the conduction current or displacement current must be zero, although we tend to choose the surface of integration so that is ...
