Metalloids are semiconductors because they are neither good nor poor conductors.Metalloids have the properties of both metals and nonmetals. Their electronic structures are intermediate between those of metals and nonmetals. Thus, they conduct electricitybetter than nonmetals but not as well as metals. So they act as semiconductor.
