Michael Faraday
Michael Faraday (1791-1867) was an English scientist who contributed to the fields of electromagnetism and
electrochemistry. His main discoveries include those of electromagnetic induction, diamagnetism and electrolysis.
Although Faraday received little formal education he was one of the most influential scientists in history, and
historians of science refer to him as having been the best experimentalist in the history of science. It was by
his research on the magnetic field around a conductor carrying a direct current that Faraday established the basis for
the concept of the electromagnetic field in physics. Faraday also established that magnetism could affect rays of light
and that there was an underlying relationship between the two phenomena.
