Charge carrier Charge carrier In physics, a charge carrier is a particle or quasiparticle that is free to move, carrying an electric charge, especially the particles that carry electric charges in electrical conductors. Examples are electrons, ions and holes. In a conducting medium, an electric field can exert force on these free particles, causing a net motion of the particles through the medium; this is what constitutes an electric current. In different conducting media, different particles serve to carry charge: It can be seen that in some conductors, such as ionic solutions and plasmas, there are both positive and negative charge carriers,
Finn (given name) Finn (given name) Finn is generally regarded as a masculine given name. The name has several origins. In some cases it is derived from the Old Norse personal name and byname "Finnr", meaning "Lapp" or "Finn". In some cases the Old Norse name was a short form of other names composed with this element.
