Summary

This image shows a replication of H.J. Round's experiments in which he discovered the effect underlying the light emitting diode (LED). A negatively charged needle contacts a positively charged crystal of silicon carbide or carborundum. At a voltage of 9 V and a current of 30 mA a green glow can be observed at the contact point between needle and crystal. A more detailed version of the setup can be found at <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.dlip.de/?p=99">www.dlip.de</a>
