Silicon (Si) is a metalloid, element number 14 on the periodic table. Like carbon, silicon has four bonding sites, but silicon is more than twice as heavy as carbon.

Scientists have developed the first electrically pumped continuous-wave semiconductor laser composed exclusively of elements from the fourth group of the periodic table -- the 'silicon group ...

Narrowing down the list, attention gets turned to the lamest group—the transition metals hold, somewhere among them, the worst element on the periodic table. Almost all of them are some variation of ...
