Here's my take on a cartoony conductivity simulation. I've got three models: conductors, semiconductors, and semiconductors but with holes. https://landgreen.

- dreamcompiler 7y agoI like these diagrams. Now I want to see what superconductivity looks like in your framework. An unimpeded stream of electrons flowing as if the red dots aren't even there?
- lilgreenland 7y agoMy simulation just runs classical physics (Coulomb's law + Newton's laws). It's missing any mechanism for super conductivity. Although, I could just turn off friction. I think superconductivity means the electrons pair up and stop colliding through the Pauli exclusion principle. I didn't code any collisions, so maybe it's already modeling a crappy version of superconductivity!
- javajosh 7y agoYes, that looks much closer to what I have in mind, although I also tend to think of electrons as not visible individually and doing this as part of a large cloud over a 3-D crystalline substrate.
