Semiconductorsact as good conductors under some conditions but as poor conductors under others. In a semiconductor, both electrons and so-called holes -- electron absences -- act as charge carriers. Examples of semiconductors include silicon, germanium and various metal oxides. Integrated circuits lik...
Semiconductors include single elements such as silicon (Si) and germanium (Ge), and compounds such as gallium arsenide (GaAs), silicon carbide (SiC), silicon germanium (SiGe), and gallium nitride (GaN). 1/7 Next Chapter I : Basis of Semiconductors Semiconductor raw materials Details n-...

Semiconductor materials include – Silicon, antimony, arsenic, boron, carbon, germanium, gallium arsenide, selenium, silicon carbide, sulfur, tellurium, oxides of most metals.What is Superconductor?Superconductor is an element, inter-metallic alloy, or a compound that conducts electricity without ...
A semiconductor device, which conducts electricity in asemi-enthusiasticway, falls somewhere between a real conductor like copper and an insulator such as the plastic wrapped around wires. Although most transistors are made from silicon, they also use other materials such as germanium and gallium ars...
A semiconductor is a material whose resistance is between that of a conductor and an insulator. Eg Silicon Intrinsic Semiconductor Intrinsic conduction is conduction in a pure semiconductor. Extrinsic Semiconductors p-type n-type Pb Extrinsic conduction is conduction in a doped semiconductor. Electrons ...
According to Dr. Ken Mellendorf atNewton's Ask a Scientist: 'Doping' is a procedure that makes semiconductors such as silicon and germanium ready for use in diodes and transistors. Semiconductors in their undoped form are actually electrical insulators that don't insulate very well. They form ...
They are Silicon & germanium 3). What are the types of extrinsic semiconductors? They are P-type and N-type semiconductors 4).Why extrinsic semiconductors are used in electronics manufacturing? Because the electrical conductivity of the extrinsic type is high compare with intrinsic. So these are ...
The Physics of a Semiconductor There are some materials, which have neither good conductivity nor bad conductivity of electricity. They have a moderate range of electrical conductivity. The examples of such materials are germanium, silicon, carbon etc. As the conductivity of those materials lies betw...
Is silver a conductor or a semiconductor? Explain. Use the band model to describe differences among insulators, conductors, and semiconductors. Is germanium a conductor or a semiconductor? Explain. What is meant by 'doping' in a semiconductor? What is the role of graphite ...
