The spelling semi-conductor is not familiar to me. I'd suggest the spelling be changed to ''semiconductor''. For example [http://www.google.com/search?tbs=bks:1&tbo=p&q=semiconductor&num=10 this Google search] turns up semiconductor 1.3 million times, while semi-conductor [http://www.google.com/search?tbs=bks:1&tbo=p&q=semi-conductor&num=10#hl=en&tbs=bks:1&sa=X&ei=I6siTeW5OYqCsQO_m623Ag&ved=0CCwQvgUoAA&q=semi-conductor&nfpr=1&fp=fc8aae4abccfd483 turns up] only 171,000 times.  [[User:John R.

Semi-conductor

The spelling semi-conductor is not familiar to me. I'd suggest the spelling be changed to semiconductor. For example this Google search turns up semiconductor 1.3 million times, while semi-conductor turns up only 171,000 times. John R. Brews 05:13, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

John, I re-named it as you requested. Milton Beychok 18:46, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
