Schrödinger's wave equation was based on the Heisenberg uncertainty principal that the position and velocity of a electron cannot be determined accurately (accuracy in one will sacrifice accuracy in another). Schrödinger's wave equation gave a wave function, which squared gave the probability cloud of electrons. Therefore, Schrödinger's contribution resulted in the electron cloud model of the atom.
Neither Schrödinger nor anybody else "invented" the atom; it was "discovered", not invented. The knowledge of the atom increased gradually; this was not a single year. Schrödinger was just one of many who contributed to the knowledge about it.
He first put his atomic model forward in 1926.
Bohr first publicly stated his postulates in three papers published in Philosophical Magazine in the second half of 1913.
Atomic theory:
* Leucippus (approx. 500 BC) and Democritus (approx. 460-370 BC)
* John Dalton - 1819
* Twentieth century; Bohr, Rutherford, etc.

Niels Bohr propose a planetary model for the atomic nucleus.
Niels Bohr proposed the planetary model for the atom.
Bohr model was Introduced by Niels Bohr in 1913 A related model was originally proposed by Arthur Erich Haas in 1910, but was rejected.
The atomic model of Niels Bohr is similar to planetary system of Sun (Sun being the equivalent of the atomic nucleus).
Niels Bohr is considered the founder of the modern atomic model.

Now, an advanced model derived from the Niels Bohr theory.
Niels Bohr is considered the founder of the modern atomic model.
Niels Bohr placed in the center of atom the atomic nucleus and electrons in movement around nucleus.

The Bohr model for the atom is from 1913.
