It is shown that a transversal potential appears when a current flows along a film with a transversal impurity gradient. The potential is evaluated in the relaxation time approximation for the Boltzmann‐Bloch equation, being quadratic in the applied field. Semi‐classical Monte Carlo simulations have verified those results.
