Silicon
Yes. It is used in most semiconductor devices, most importantly in integrated circuits (microchips).

A semiconductor is a material that is neither completely conductive nor completely non-conductive.Semiconductors used in integrated circuits are the basis for modern electronics.(note: the word semiconductor is often informlly used for the IC chips based on this technology)
Silicon is the eighth most common element on earth but only rarely found in its pure form. It is mostly used to make microchips for computers. Silicon is a very good semiconductor, so it can take the heat.It has many other uses, to name a few:Solar panelsGlasswareCircuitry
copper oxide is a semiconductor. it used to be used for power rectifiers.
The most common items a semiconductor is used for is electrical components. These include computer processing units, graphic processing units, and transistors.
Silicon based semiconductors are the most commonly used semiconductor material in calculators. Silicon semiconductors are also extensively used in computers.
A metalloid are the elements located on the "staircase" of the periodic table. They have properties of metals and nonmetals. They make for good semi-conductors. The most common is silicon, which is used in computers.
The connection between a metalloid and a semiconductor is that metalloids are used in electronics as semiconductors. A semiconductor doesn't conduct electricity as well as a metal, but does conduct electricity better than a nonmetal.
Nonmetal is a frequently used synonym for metalloid.
One element that is semiconducter is Silicon. 2nd answer: One common element used to manufacture a semiconductor is silicon. Germanium has also been widely used, and is more sensitive to tiny voltage changes than silicon. The compound gallium arsenide is very common in the manufacture of semiconductor material, as well.
entire circuit is built into a single piece of semiconductor (chip); physical properties of semiconductor to large degree determine performance of the circuit; the most common integrated circuits such as microprocessors, memories, etc., are all monolithic.
A semiconductor slice is used to make integrated circuits or ICs. It is also known as a semiconductor wafer or a semiconductor substrate.
Metalloid, or semi metal is a term used in chemistry when classifying the chemical elements.

No, the guy before me was wrong, Astatine is a Metalloid and it is used in the Radiotherapy of cancer.
