Neils Bohr
In Niels Bohr's model of the atom, electrons are arranged in distinct energy levels or orbits around the nucleus. Each orbit corresponds to a specific energy level, with electrons occupying the lowest available energy state. Electrons can move between these orbits by absorbing or emitting energy, typically in the form of photons. This model successfully explains the spectral lines of hydrogen but has limitations for more complex atoms.

Was it not Neils Bohr. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niels_Bohr#Atomic_research
The Electron Cloud Model was proposed by Erwin Schrödinger in 1926 as part of the development of quantum mechanics. It describes electrons not as discrete particles with defined orbits but rather as wave functions that exist in a three-dimensional cloud surrounding the nucleus of an atom.
Scientists determined that electrons do not orbit the nucleus like planets. Instead, electrons can be anywhere in a cloud like region around the nucleus
Neil Bohrs atomic model is simply called Bohrs model. It states that electrons have a certain amount of energy, so they must follow certain orbits. This is different from the modern atomic model.
