Although an explanation of electric current in terms of the one-way movement of electrons is widely accepted, and represents a reassuringly simple model, there are several problems when it comes to explaining phenomena such as the Hall Effect, electrical currents within semiconductor circuitry and the generation of electric and magnetic fields by electric currents. This article overviews the implications of the existence of real rather than pseudo positive charge carriers to explaining electric currents and related electromagnetic phenomena, and some unexpected implications for covalent bonds and radioactive decay.
