Peter Debye (1884-1966) was a Dutch-American physicist and chemist renowned for his contributions to the fields of physical chemistry and electrodynamics. He is best known for his work on the Debye model, which describes how dielectric materials respond to electric fields. He also investigated the behavior of polar molecules, leading to the introduction of the concept of the dipole moment and Debye temperature, which relates to specific heat capacities in solids.
