Response to "Comment on 'Magnetic transistor behavior explained by modulation of emitter injection, not carrier deflection'"

We believe that V. Zieren, S. Kordic, and S. hliddelhoek in their comment [ibid., EDL-3, pp, 394-395, Dec. 1982] wherein they claim a hypothetical assumption that "electron injection current would induce a Hall voltage in the base region of our device," is invalid. It is the majority carrier flow, not minority carriers, which give rise to the Hall effect in the various regions. As indicated above, these effects result in emitter-injection modulation leading to differential collector currents which are consistent with experimental results.
