In 1823 by Swidish natinalist 'Berzilus'
research the discovery of the elements/ silicon
Controversy about silicon's physical and chemical character dates to its discovery: silicon was first prepared and characterized in pure form in 1824, and given the name:Silicium (from Latin: silicis, flints),with an -ium word-ending to suggest a metal.However, its final name Silicon, suggested in 1831, reflects the more physically similar elements carbon and boron.
I don't believe so, but if so watch for a show for it on the discovery channel or Nova.
