Question

What are semiconductors? How do they differ from conductors and insulators?

Answer 1

here is your answer

So, the electricity can pass easily through the conductors. Semiconductors are those materials whose electrical conductivity is between conductors and insulators. The forbidden energy gap of a semiconductor is nearly same as insulator. The energy gap is narrower

semiconductors and superconductors?

A superconductor is a metal that acts strangely when cooled down to a certain temperature. When these materials reach their critical temperature they suddenly become perfect conductors. A semiconductor, on the other hand, is a material that has a conductivity somewhere between that of a conductor and an insulator

Answer 2

Answer:

  The semiconductor device is the type of electronic device component which exploits the various types of electronic properties of the semiconductor materials. The semiconductor conductivity always lie between the insulator and the conductor.

The energy gap of the semiconductor material are narrow and at the room temperature the semiconductor material are  partially full conduction and valence band.
