How are they made?
We inject hundreds of trillions of sub-atomic particles, called electrons, into acrylic specimens using a 5 million volt particle accelerator. The injected electrons charge up the interior of clear acrylic specimens to 1 - 2.5 million volts. We then (carefully!) discharge them, releasing the excess charges and creating an intense, miniature "lightning bolt" inside the specimens. The high energy discharges leave behind countless branching chains of microscopic fractures and tubes deep inside the acrylic - a permanent "fossil" of the paths taken by the discharges. The following video clips were captured during some of our irradiation sessions. Why do we make these? We were intrigued by the incredible beauty and the physics of Lichtenberg Figures but we were continually frustrated by their scarcity. A group of fellow "Spark Whisperers" (physicists and electrical engineers) decided to conduct independent research into the theory and technique of producing them. However, since "beam time" and raw materials are fairly expensive, we also decided to offer specimens to the general public to help fund our research. During each new experimental run, we "push the envelope" further by creating larger, more complex figures, or by conducting experiments and measurements that help us gain an improved understanding of the physical processes involved. Specimens from our latest production runs represent the current state of the art for 2D and 3D acrylic figures. We are proud that many of our specimens are recognized as being World Class in beauty and size. Our team of Spark Whisperers have created over 40 styles of Lichtenberg Figures ranging in size from affordable 2" x 2" x 3/4" blocks, a wide selection of medium and larger sized specimens, museum quality 15" x 20" x 2" specimens for discriminating collectors and institutions, and we can create even larger specimens. Every Lichtenberg Figure ships with a one-page explanation about what it is and how it was created. Many of our newer sculptures may have a layer with an amber hue. This is called solarization, and it is produced by complex interactions between the electron beam and the acrylic. It usually fades with time, and the fading process can sometimes be accelerated by applying gentle heat. Display: The images on our site were taken using lighting conditions which highlighted the delicate internal patterns. Similar, or even more spectacular, results can be obtained by actively lighting the figures with LED's or another source of bright light. Light is reflected by the tiny mirror-like fractures, causing the internal Lichtenberg figure to glow brilliantly with the color of the light source. We offer a wide variety of standard and custom LED light bases that optimally illuminate our sculptures. As with snowflakes, every Lichtenberg figure is unique. Although your figure may differ from the examples shown on our web site, we guarantee it will be of similar, or better, quality. Many specimens may have small fractures near the exit point of the discharge. This is a natural consequence of the high energy discharge process. By adding suitably engraved or lettered metal plaques to our bases, Lichtenberg Figures make memorable gifts or unique academic, corporate or retirement awards. We also offer custom laser engraving for our larger flat sculptures. Captured Lightning sculptures are treasured works of scientific art that will enhance the decor of any room or executive suite. Because demand is high and quantities limited, we recommend ordering soon to avoid possible disappointment. Dealers: Please contact us with your custom ideas, unique requirements. Also, please contact us if you want to order larger quantities or special shipping since our shopping cart software does not automatically apply quantity discounts or shipping alternatives.

Style 18A "Tesla's
Lightning" - Tesla's name written with letters of lightning in a unique
4" x 12" x 1/2" specimen. These Style 18A figures are somewhat
longer than our previous Style 18 figures and they come with polished
edges. By using lead masks we were able to selectively
charge only selected regions of the acrylic to form letters. This
allowed us to
literally "write"
Tesla's name in lightning. We also carry a beautiful black anodized brushed aluminum light base with white LED's
(model GAB1212L) for these figures. Power adapters are available for US power, and we also provide plug converters that permit our adapter to be used with EC, UK or Australian power. Only a few of these unique specimens are left - get yours while they're

For folks on a tighter budget, we have a
limited
number of "factory seconds" and experimental
specimens. Factory seconds may have a relatively small (1/8" - 1/2")
fracture or chip at the "root" of the discharge. Others may have
self-discharged and show some charring from beam current being
repetitively being discharged through the figure. Although these are
less than perfect, they are still beautiful
and unique specimens and are backed by our 100% money back satisfaction
guarantee. Currently
available factory seconds include styles 1, 2, 3, 4,
5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, 17, 19A (12" x 12" x 3/4"), 22, 23, 24, 28, 29, 30, 31, 43, 45, and 46.
Factory 2nds are priced at 50% of the regular price, so they can be real bargains. Click on the above image to see more details or to order your factory second specimens. |

pictures so that you can still appreciate their beauty. We may try
making some similar 2" thick specimens on a future production run. If
you are interested in acquiring one, please contact us via email or at 630-964-2699 to discuss.

| BD752MC Battery Powered Multicolor Light Base This
compact color changing light base measures 2.25" x 2.25" x 1.13". It uses a
0.5" x 0.5" array of 4 high-intensity color LED's to slowly cycle
through a variety
of
colors. As the colored LED's continually color cycle, they also illuminate different portions
of the sculpture. The base has an attractive black matte finish. It
requires three "AAA" batteries (not included) and comes
with a sliding ON/OFF switch. The changing colors cycle over a period of 12-15
seconds. A short video clip showing a Style 54 sculpture on this light base is available via YouTube. When powered by
a set of alkaline batteries, the estimated
battery life is 35-40 hours of continuous operation.
Ideal for many of our smaller sculptures such as Styles 2, 3, 4, 13, 28, 29, 31, 43, 45, and 54 Captured Lightning® sculptures. The beveled shape and size make this base an excellent match for our style 4 and 54 sculptures. $23.00 plus $5.00 for S&H |
BD753MC and BD753W
Medium Power Multicolor or White Light Base This
compact
light base is 2.75" x 2.75" x 3/4" and comes with a choice of
multicolor-color changing or bright white LED's. Each base uses a
0.75" x 0.75" square array of 9 high-intensity LED's to
brilliantly light your specimen. The multicolor version continually
cycles
through a variety
of
colors. As the colors change,
they illuminate various
regions of the figure, creating a beautiful continually blending and
shifting
display. The white LED base bathes your figure in cool, bright light,
and works very well for areas that have brighter ambient lighting, such as offices. The black plastic exterior has an attractive matte finish. This base is significantly brighter than the BD752MC or BD754W. Adapter output: 12 VDC @ 300 mA, via a 1.3 mm center positive connector. NOTE: Power adapter is only available with 2-prong plug for 120 volt North American power.
