What is a semiconductor?
Why are you used as one?

A semiconductor is a metal whose conductivity is controlled.
Because I am a metalloid

You are a metalloid. Name a property of yours that's like a metal and a property of yours that's like a non-metal.

Metal- shiney and hard
Non-metal- not a great conductor
