UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008670	Metals	Electropositive chemical elements characterized by ductility, malleability, luster, and conductance of heat and electricity. They can replace the hydrogen of an acid and form bases with hydroxyl radicals. (Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed)	Metal

D012666	Semiconductors	Materials that have a limited and usually variable electrical conductivity. They are particularly useful for the production of solid-state electronic devices.	Semiconductor
D016252	Microscopy, Scanning Tunneling	A type of scanning probe microscopy in which a very sharp conducting needle is swept just a few angstroms above the surface of a sample. The tiny tunneling current that flows between the sample and the needle tip is measured, and from this are produced three-dimensional topographs. Due to the poor electron conductivity of most biological samples, thin metal coatings are deposited on the sample.
