Theory CONDUCTORS‚ INSULATORS AND CONDUCTIVITY Conduction of electricity in electric circuits takes place due to the presence of excess electrons in materials called conductors. Electrons move in the direction in which the potential has been applied. The ability of a conductor to conduct electricity is directly proportional to the material’s area of cross section and inversely proportional to its length. Where‚ G is conductance σ is conductivity A is area of cross section

diode – A diode is an electronic component which allows electric current to glow in only one direction. Diodes are constructed from semiconductors. The anode is the positive terminal and the cathode the negative terminal. LED= light emitting diode a diode which emits light. Semiconductor materials Silicon is the most commonly used semiconductor in electronics‚ germanium is also used. These elements form a stable crystal lattice‚ with each atom sharing its four outer electrons (called valence electrons)
