difference b/w semiconductor and insulator..

Answer / palpandi.a

Semiconductor has 4 electrons in conduction band.due to the
doping it get or lose one electron.so it act as partial
condutor.But insulator has 8 electrons in conduction band.

difference b/w semiconductor and insulator..

Answer / sunil guru

There is difference in the doping of SEMICONDUCTOR AND
INSULATOR...
IN SEMICONDUCTOR the distance between the upper band and the
lower band is low...so the conduction level is high...

and in INSULATOR the distance betwn U.B AND L.B is HIGH.. so
the conduction level is low..

insulators sre ban conductors and semiconductors are good
conductors
