Particularly since the advent of semiconductors - current flow is sometimes expressed in terms of the movement of holes.Since when is the flow of electrons not the flow of electrical charge (where 1 electron has a charge of ≅ -1.60217657 × 10E-19 coulombs)?
And the flow is indeed measured in amperes (coulombs per second).
The movement of holes is in the same direction of the notional direction of conventional current.
