Codex entry

Entry 1
Early twentieth-century crystal radio sets used galena crystals as semiconductor detectors, with a thin "cat's whisker" wire rectifying incoming radio waves into audible signals.
Entry 2
Ancient Egyptians ground galena into the black eye cosmetic kohl, worn by all social classes for beauty, sun protection, and religious significance since at least the predynastic Badarian period.
Entry 3
Galena is a natural semiconductor with a band gap of about 0.4 eV. Early 1900s crystal radio sets used galena crystals as point-contact diode detectors, making it one of humanity's first semiconductor devices.
