  Jan Czochralski - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jan Czochralski (pronounced cho-HRAL-skee) (October 23, 1885 - April 22, 1953) was a Polish chemist who discovered the Czochralski process, which is used to grow single crystals and is used in the production of semiconductor wafers.
He discovered the Czochralski method in 1916, when he accidentally dipped his pen into a crucible of molten tin rather than his inkwell.
The experiments of Czochralski produced single crystals that were a millimeter in diameter and up to 150 centimeters long.

Jan Czochralski belonged to a generation actively participating in the exciting progress of science and technology at the beginning of the 20th century.
Jan Czochralski was born on 23 October 1885 in Kcynia in the Paluki region which was then under the Prussian domination.
Jan Czochralski took about ten years of research of source materials and numerous interviews and would not have been completed without the enormous assistance of many persons, offices, archives and museums in Poland and abroad.

Although an application for this method was found only in the 1950s, today's electronics would be impossible without it, which would mean there would be none of the equipment we have all come to rely on in our daily lives which requires silicon chips-such as televisions, computers, telephones, robots, microwave ovens and quartz watches.
Czochralski discovered great and small things-even today, the liquid used for "hot" permanent waves at the hairdresser's is based on his recipe.

Jan Chryzostom Pasek (1636-1701) was a nobleman (szlachcic) and writer in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
He relates the tales of the 17th-century Swedish and Muscovite wars, the catastrophic last years of the reign of King John II Casimir (1648-68), the incompetent rule of King Michal Korybut Wisniowiecki (1669-73), and he concludes his narrative with the splendid reign of King Jan III Sobieski (1674-96).
In the first part of the diary (1656 - 66), Pasek depicts the military life, showing soldiers primary motivations, like curiosity, desire of fame and loot, and disregard for deep religious messages.

Later that evening, instead of dipping his pen in the inkpot, he dipped it in the crucible and withdrew it quickly observing a thin thread of solidified metal hanging at the tip of the pen.
His method was forgotten for years until 1950 when an increasing demand for semiconductor electronic materials forced Bell Labs to apply the "Czochralski method" for growing large single crystals on an industrial scale.

Jan Czochralski nearly 50 years ago, crystals grown by the Czochralski method have increased remarkably in size and perfection, resulting today in the industrial production of silicon crystals about 30 cm in diameter and two meters in length.
The Czochralski method is of great technological and economic importance for semiconductors and optical crystals.
The range of the lattice parameters variation and the high melting point indicate that these crystals may be used as substrates for HTSc, manganites or GaN epitaxial layers because of their high thermal and chemical stability.

The Czochralski method is the technology used to grow the large crystals required in the chip industry.
The method was named after the Polish scientist Jan Czochralski who discovered it by serendipity in 1916 after accidentally dipping his quill into a tub of molten metal instead of an inkpot.
