... expanded when presented to light. after 66 years, in 1905, we picked up a comprehension of Edmonds' work when the well known physicist Albert Einstein plainly depicted the photoelectric impact, the rule on which photovoltaic cells are based. In 1921 Einstein got the Nobel Prize for his speculations on the photoelectric impact. Solar cells of down to earth utilization have been accessible since the ... photoelectric impact was initially noted by a French physicist, Edmund Bequerel, in 1839, who found that certain materials would deliver little measures of electric current when presented ...

... 1995, some Colorado physicists cooled atoms of rubidium gas to such a low temperature that the particles entered a merged state, called the "Bose-Einstein condensate". This phenomenon was first predicted about 70 years ago by theories of Satyendre Nath Bose and Albert Einstein. The condensate behaves like 1 atom, even though it is made up of thousands. The team used 2 techniques: first laser cooling and ... ...

As Albert Einstein once said, "Not everything that can be measured counts and not everything that counts can be measured."
