very interesting :) went to Alek's workshop, we tried making a large plasma discharge tube, prince rupert drops and a semiconductor diode (by melting indium into a block of N-doped germanium). only one of those experiments failed, and the one you'd think was the simplest ;)
<Fallenou>
that sounds like a nice gig ;)

hmm, maybe two liters of beer ;)
<Fallenou>
hehe
<Fallenou>
which experiment failed? making the diode?
<sb0>
no
<sb0>
the one you find on instructables ;) prince rupert drops
<sb0>
the diode worked, it was even possible to listen to AM radio with it
<Fallenou>
wow !
<Fallenou>
was the diode big?
<sb0>
yes
<Fallenou>
do you have pictures ?
<sb0>
I don't ...
