Ab 1873 war er Professor der Physik an der Universität Philadelphia. 1881 war er Abgesandter der USA bei der Elektrizitätsausstellung in Paris. 1900 emeritierte er. Neben zahlreichen Ehrendoktoraten wurde er 1898 Sc.D.h.c. an der University of Pennsylvania und Mitglied der Ehrenlegion von Frankreich.
