Silicon dioxide is not a semiconductor because it is an atomic crystal that does not conduct electricity and belongs to non-conductive materials. Silicon dioxide, with the chemical formula SiO, is highly pure and colorless. It is a solid at room temperature and insoluble in water.
Semiconductor refers to a material with conductivity between that of a conductor and an insulator at room temperature. Semiconductors have a wide range of applications in radios, televisions, and temperature measurement. A diode is a device made of semiconductors.
