| Definition Of: |
INSULATOR
A material of such low electrical conductivity that a flow of current through it can usually be neglected. Similarly, a material of low thermal conductivity, such as that used to insulate structures.
a nonmetallic material that has a filled valence band at 0 K and a relatively wide energy band gap; consequently the
room-temperature electrical conductivity is very low.
