 In metals, electrons are free to move. If an external voltage is applied, they follow the potential difference to the positive electrode: current flows. In insulators, on the other hand, the electrons are firmly bound to the atomic trunks. If a voltage is applied, they can at best be polarized. No current flows. In metals, electrons are free to move.

-A semiconductor is a material whose conductivity lies between that of metals and that of insulators. The technologically most important example of a semiconductor is silicon. In the silicon crystal, the electrons are not freely movable as in metal, because they are bound to the atomic trunks. But a small supply of energy (e.g. thermal energy) is sufficient to release the electrons from the atoms. Then, when a voltage is applied, an electric current flows. This is called the **intrinsic conduction** (intrinsic conduction) of the semiconductor. When the electrons move around in the semiconductor, this is called **electron conduction**.+A semiconductor is a material whose conductivity lies between that of metals and that of insulators.

 A hole with a positive electrical charge is created at the silicon atom from which the electron was removed. This is also called a defect electron. These holes can also move through the crystal lattice and thus generate an electric current. This is called **hole conduction**. Hole conduction can be thought of as a hole being filled by an electron from the neighboring atom. However, this creates a hole in the neighboring atom. Effectively, such a hole has migrated from one atom to another, carrying with it a positive electric charge. \\  A hole with a positive electrical charge is created at the silicon atom from which the electron was removed.
