Semiconductor Nanomaterials 2

Semiconductor devices can display a range of different useful properties, such as passing current more easily in one direction than the other, showing variable resistance, and having sensitivity to light or heat.

Semiconductor Nanomaterials 3

A semiconductor is a substance that can act as a conductor or insulator depending on other factors, enabling it to serve as a foundation for computers and other electronic devices. The term semiconductor is now widely associated with integrated circuits.

What is a semiconductor, and what is it used for? - TechTarget

Generally speaking, the term semiconductor refers to a material – like silicon – that can conduct electricity much better than an insulator such as glass, but not as well as metals like copper or...

Semiconductor, any of a class of crystalline solids intermediate in electrical conductivity between a conductor and an insulator. Semiconductors are employed in the manufacture of various kinds of electronic devices, including diodes, transistors, and integrated circuits.

Semiconductor Nanomaterials 7

Semiconductor devices are electronic components that use conductors and insulators to control the flow of electric currents. The most popular kind of semiconductor device is the widely used transistor, a small, durable, electronic component that powers most modern electronics.
