Scanning our past from London: the filament lamp and new materials
@article{Bowers2001ScanningOP, title={Scanning our past from London: the filament lamp and new materials}, author={Brian Bowers}, journal={Proceedings of the IEEE}, year={2001}, volume={89}, pages={413-415} }
A 19th century electrical artifact that has been completely transformed and given a new lease of life is the filament lamp. In the 19th century, the filament was made of carbon: no other material was satisfactory. The author looks at the development of early carbon lamps and the eventual transition to metal filament lamps using tantalum and tungsten.
