Semiconductor
Semiconductor is a material that has an electrical resistivity between the extremes of a conductor and an insulator.
It was a long time ago when the first transistor was discovered or introduced on December 23rd, 1947. But before it was discovered, tubes was popular years ago. Because of our determination to discover for more advance technology, we crossed for more advance technology, we crossed our limits.
People doesn't limit their knowledge for more advance, they didn't just concentrate in one area.
The components nowadays becomes smaller and powerful. Who knows maybe the next days we can't even touch it with our bear hands.
It has a lot of function. It can perform as a vacuum tube that is more powerful. The integrated IC (microchip) which have millions of resistor, transistor and capacitor that made up of our devices today.
I will assist you to have a basic understanding about it, the components and their functions.
INTERESTING TOPICS:
Conductor are elements that control electricity. They support the flow of electricity and they have a very low electrical resistance.
Insulators
Insulators have an extremely high resistance to the flow of electricity.
Diode Theory
Diodes is the first electronic device to be introduced. An electronic device that allows the passage of current in only one direction.

Doping
Doping is the process of adding a pentavalent or trivalent impurities to an intrinsic material.
Zener Diode
Zener Diode permits current in a forward direction but also in the reverse direction.
