Conductors have a band gap close to 0 eV (electronvolts), semiconductors range approximately between 1 and 9 eV, and anything above is usually considered an insulator.
A rule-breaking, colorful silicone that could conduct electricity. Previously only thought to be insulating, a shift in the ...
Conductors, semiconductors and insulators are differentiated by their band gap, which essentially measures how much energy electrons need to move freely through the material.

ExtremeTech on MSNWhat Are Semiconductors, and What Are They Made Of?Semiconductors are at the heart of most electronics. We explain what semiconductors are, how they work, and just how tiny those transistors can get.
A semiconductor is a material product with some of the properties of both insulators and conductors (hence semi, meaning half or partial, conductor). Semiconductors are usually comprised of ...
The combination of conductors, semiconductors and insulators with well-defined geometries and at prescribed length scales, while forming intimate interfaces, is essential in most functional ...
