Electrical properties of solids with diagram
Answers
Explanation:
conductors
They allow heat energy and electric currents to transmit through them with ease and speed. Conductors allow this transfer of energy to happen via free flow of electrons from atom to ato
insulator
Stark opposite to conductors, insulators are materials that absolutely do not conduct any electric energy or currents. They do not let any (or very little) electric charge flow through them. They have a significant band gap which prevents the flow of electricity. Some examples are glass, wood, plastics, rubber etc.
semiconductor
Semiconductors are the go-between conductors and insulators. These are solids that have the ability to conduct electricity through them but only under certain conditions. There are two such conditions that affect the ability of semiconductors to conduct energy, heat, and impurities.
