A semimetal, also known as a metalloid, is a material that has properties of both metals and nonmetals. These materials have electrical conductivity that falls between that of metals and insulators, and can exhibit characteristics of both metallic and non-metallic behavior. Examples include silicon, germanium, and arsenic.
