  1. semiconducting material

    A semiconducting material is a type of material with electrical conductivity values falling between a conductor and an insulator. While it doesn't conduct electricity as well as a conductor, it isn't as resistant as an insulator. Semiconductors are useful in electronic devices due to their property of having variable resistance, which can be controlled by adding impurities or by altering the temperature, making them able to both conduct and block the flow of current. Notable examples of semiconducting materials include silicon, germanium, and gallium arsenide.
