Summary:The current distribution and the electrical potential is calculated for a system showing the Quantized Hall effect. The magnetic field strength enters the calculation in the form of the conductivity tensor of the sample. For the case of vanishing σ xx the potential was calculated analytically, while for the other cases - representing different magnetic fields - current distribution and potential were computed numerically.
