    Gorham Manufacturing Company's Works. Canal, Steeple, and North Main Streets, Providence, 1886. Gorham Silver was founded in 1831 in Providence, Rhode Island by Jabez Gorham, [3] a master craftsman, in partnership with Henry L. Webster. [4]

  3. Single crystal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_crystal

    However, the single-crystal copper not only became a better conductor than high purity polycrystalline silver, but with prescribed heat and pressure treatment could surpass even single-crystal silver. Although impurities are usually bad for conductivity, a silver single crystal with a small amount of copper substitutions proved to be the best.

  4. Crystal radio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_radio

    A crystal detector includes a crystal, usually a thin wire or metal probe that contacts the crystal, and the stand or enclosure that holds those components in place. The most common crystal used is a small piece of galena ; pyrite was also often used, as it was a more easily adjusted and stable mineral, and quite sufficient for urban signal ...

  5. Mu-metal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mu-metal

    Mu-metal has several compositions. One such composition is approximately 77% nickel, 16% iron, 5% copper, and 2% chromium or molybdenum. [1] [2]More recently, mu-metal is considered to be ASTM A753 Alloy 4 and is composed of approximately

  6. Cold working - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_working

    In metallurgy, cold forming or cold working is any metalworking process in which metal is shaped below its recrystallization temperature, usually at the ambient temperature.. Such processes are contrasted with hot working techniques like hot rolling, forging, welding, etc. [1]: p.375 The same or similar terms are used in glassmaking for the equivalents; for example cut glass is made by "cold ...

  7. Widmanstätten pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Widmanstätten_pattern

    The structures form due to the precipitation of a single crystal phase into two separate phases. In this way, the Widmanstätten transformation differs from other transformations, such as a martensite or ferrite transformation. The structures form at very precise angles, which may vary depending on the arrangement of the crystal lattices.

    MOF-76 crystal, where oxygen, carbon, and lanthanide atoms are represented by maroon, black, and blue spheres, respectively. Includes metal node connectivity (blue polyhedra), infinite-rod SBU, and 3D representation of MOF-76. A potential application for MOFs is biological imaging and sensing via photoluminescence. A large subset of luminescent ...
