Energy band diagrams for conductor, semiconductor and insulator are shown above. In conductors, both the valance band and conduction band overlap each other. So there is zero band gap in a conductor. In semiconductor, there is a small band gap approximately of 1eV. In an insulator, there is a large band gap of nearly 5eV.
