Dear Sreekanth

A semiconductor is a substance, usually a solid chemical element or compound, that can conduct electricity under some conditions but not others, making it a good medium for the control of electrical current.

Hello Sreekanth

semiconductor - Computer Definition. A material that is neither a good conductor of electricity nor a good insulator, but has properties of electrical conductivity somewhere between the two. Silicon and germanium are good semiconductor materials.

semiconductor devices are electronic components that exploit the electronic properties of semiconductor materials, principally silicon, germanium, and gallium arsenide, as well as organic semiconductors.

Semiconductors are used extensively in electronic circuits. As its name implies, a semiconductor is a material that conducts current, but only partly. The conductivity of a semiconductor is somewhere between that of an insulator, which has almost no conductivity, and a conductor, which has almost full conductivity.

Semiconductors are materials which have conductivity and resistivity in between conductors and insulators. These can behave as superconductors under certain conditions. They can be classified as intrinsic (pure) semiconductors and extrinsic semiconductors. Examples of intrinsic semiconductors are germanium, silicon, etc.. Examples of extrinsic semiconductors are GaAs, AlP, etc..
