Germenium and silicon are the examples of Semiconductors.
Silicon, Germanium
Those semiconductors in which some impurity atoms are embedded are known as extrinsic semiconductors.

many of them.
The indirect band gap semiconductors like silicon and germanium are mostly used because they are elemental, plentiful, and easier to process than the direct band gap semiconductors which are alloys or compounds.
semiconductors will be having some charged particles but for practical purpose the free charges should be available in abundant quantity. so in order to increase the charge particles number we add some impurity to these semiconductors . this process is called doping
Examples of p-type semiconductors include materials like boron-doped silicon, gallium arsenide, and aluminum gallium arsenide. These materials have a deficiency of electrons, leading to "holes" in the crystal lattice that behave as positive charges.
Examples are: solar cells, semiconductors, pigments, vulcanization, etc.
Application of semiconductors
They are half metal and half nonmetal. some examples areBoronSiliconGermaniumArsenicAntimonyTelluriumPoloniumI belive that metaloids are also called semiconductors. ENJOY!
Transistors are made out of semiconductors, yes.
semiconductors
NXP Semiconductors was created in 2006.
The population of NXP Semiconductors is 28,150.
The population of Horizon Semiconductors is 120.
The population of Horizon Semiconductors is 2,007.
Metalloids when used is electronics are called semiconductors.
