Michael Faraday (1791–1867) was an English scientist renowned for his contributions to the fields of electromagnetism and electrochemistry. He is best known for his discovery of electromagnetic induction, which is the principle behind electric generators and transformers. Faraday's experiments led to the formulation of Faraday's laws of electrolysis and the concept of the electric field.
