Can a semi-conductor ( germanium or silicon) or a semi-metal ( graphite ) carry an induced charge ?

What do you mean by induced charge? An unequal number if electrons to positive charges? – boyfarrell Feb 23 at 6:07 via SOStacked
Can it carry a net charge by induction like metals i think – Abdelrahman Esmat Feb 23 at 12:02
