Who was the creator of the light bulb?

As with many important developments, many people contributed to developing the fluorescent lamp.The phenomenon of fluorescence was first explained in the mid-19th century by George Stokes at Cambridge University. Other scientists including Heinrich Geissler (Germany) and William Crookes (UK) experimented with generating light by passing an electric current through gas-filled tubes. These devices produced various colors rather than white light, though, and found commercial use only for advertising and entertainment.Development of a gas-filled bulb that produced white light proved elusive. Even great inventors like Thomas Edison and Nikola Tesla were unsuccessful. A major reason for the lack of progress was that efforts concentrated on finding a gas that would itself glow white. It remained for physicist Arthur Compton to make the leap of producing light indirectly via a coating on the tube's glass rather than relying on the gas itself.Commercial development started in 1934 when Compton reported to the lamp department of the American company General Electric on successful experiments with fluorescent lighting at General Electric Co., Ltd. in Great Britain (a company unrelated to its American namesake). Compton's work was refined by other GE scientists and engineers; the first commercial fluorescent lamps went on sale four years later, in 1938.The large number of people who were directly or indirectly involved in developing fluorescent lighting resulted in protracted battles - both in and out of court - over who should receive credit, and to what extent each contributed. Despite partisans who would assign primacy to Tesla and/or Edison, there's no historical evidence that either was successful. Interestingly, one person who does receive mention, although not formal credit, is a Filipino electrician named Agapito Flores. He independently came up with the same idea as the much more renowned Compton, but dates on his work and Compton's show that Flores reached his conclusions later.For more information please see the Related Link shown below

When was the fluorescent light first used?

The fluorescent light was first introduced for commercial use at the 1939 World's Fair in New York City. While these fluorescent light bulb technologies were being developed many years before by mostly researchers and inventors at the General Electric Corporation, no wide-scale manufacturing of the fluorescent fixture, the device that makes it possible to power the light bulb, had taken place until 1940 when three (3) corporations emanated from the New York City region and became the dominate makers of the fixture throughout the United States in years to come. The three were, Lightolier & Artcraft Fluorescent Lighting Corporation, and Globe Lighting. Although General Electric, Sylvania, and Westinghouse were clear leaders in bulb technology, keeping with verity of the times, the co-founder of Artcraft Fluorescent Lighting, Mr. Louis Levy, was one of the pioneers in the manufacturing processes of the fixture. During the 1950s, the fluorescent light bulb and fixture outsold traditional lighting more than any other time in our history. And since that time, countless manufacturers around the globe make various fixtures styles although General Electric, and other major corporations remain the leaders in bulb sales. No other wide-scale major developments have taken place since 1939 in lighting technology until recently, in the 1990s, when (LEDs), a newer technology, became widely available.


What do you put in snow globes?

If you are making your own snow globes, you may wish to try several things for "snow" inside the globe: 1) crushed egg shells will suffice as snow. Rinse after crushing with a rolling pin. Do not crush into fine dust. 2) glitter or sparkles from a craft store - be aware that some colors will bleach into the liquid over time, so silvers and whites may work best 3) some craft stores sell the "snow" component specifically for snow globes, you can find on line from National Artcraft. They also call their "snow" component "drifting bits" or "flakes for snow globes." If you are asking what type of scene or figure to put in, look for small animal figures at the bulk section of a toy store, or party packs that have small items. Test in liquid overnight to be sure it will hold up. You can use hot glue or superglue to hold in place.
