Hans de melt was born on May 14, 1907, in Germany. He was a Nobel Prize laureate and he became famous due to his successful work of isolating electrons. He died on August 27, 1996, in New York.
In 1928, he was graduated from the University of Berlin and went to Stanford University in California. In 1932, he started his Ph.D. at Stanford University and completed it in 1935. In 1940, he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics. He received the prize for his isolation of electrons.
He is considered to be one of the greatest physicists in the world. He was the president of the American Physical Society, the president of the American Association of Physicists, the president of the American Institute of Physics, and the president of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.
He had written many books and papers in his life. Some of them are:

Dehmelt invented the deuterium fluoride (D2F) laser and was awarded the Nobel Prize for this invention in 1954. He received the award for his work with H. A. Bethe, John R. Dunning, George E. Pake, and Robert B. Mott, all of whom were working at Columbia University.
He is best known for his development of the deuterium fluoride laser, a device that allowed physicists to manipulate the energy levels of electrons, leading to the discovery of the neutron in 1932. Dehmelt won the Nobel Prize in Physics for his research.
Dehmelt had a background in physics and electrical engineering. He was born in Vienna in 1914. He immigrated to the U.S. in 1938. He went to Columbia University, where he obtained his Bachelor of Science in 1940 and his Master of Science in 1942.
Dehmelt was a faculty member at Columbia from 1947 until his retirement in 1982. In 1952 he became a professor of physics at Columbia. He was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 1962 and the National Academy of Engineering in 1966.
Dehmelt died on January 14, 2016, at the age of 94.
