Incandescent Bulb
An electric light in which a filament is heated to incandescence by an electric current.
!["Incandescence lamps operate essentially on the principle...[that] the current being sent through some substance that, because of its high resistance, becomes intensely heated and brilliantly incandescent. The only suitable substance known for such a resistance filament is carbon, which, carefully prepared and bent into a loop, is enclosed in a glass bulb from which the air is exhausted to prevent oxidation, i.e., combustion." -Avery 1895](https://etc.usf.edu/clipart/36000/36079/incand_36079_mth.gif)
