Semiconductor

Real World Example

Imagine you're trying to get your phone to work, but it only turns on when you press the power button in just the right way. This is similar to how a semiconductor operates, as it conducts electricity only under specific conditions, much like your phone only turning on when the button is pressed correctly. In this analogy, the phone represents the semiconductor material, the power button is akin to the conditions required for conduction (like temperature or voltage), and the phone's ability to power on is like the semiconductor's ability to conduct electricity when those conditions are met.
