Since gates are meant to control the flow of electrons, this is a problem.

Isn't the current we measure in the opposite direction of electron flow?

With this in mind, consider the flow of electrons across the junction.

I do not believe that temperature has a huge impact on the speed of electron flow.

Not all metals offer the same opposition to electron flow.

This flow of electrons, or a negative charge, is what we call electricity.

Thus, the flow of electrons in this system is cyclical.

This flow of electrons around the circuit is called electric current.

And that was so because he could control the flow of electrons along conductors.

This flow of electrons is an electrical current that can be used to do work, such as turn a motor or power a light.
