My grandfather filed patents on his method of forming large halide crystals. However, all attempts to duplicate his process have failed to produce those crystals, and he's long dead.

He apparently wished to both protect his process and keep it secret.

Walter Bright, making crystals. Did he inspire a show by any chance?

I am sometimes confused with Walter White, as we are both in the Empire business.
