I think he did some of it at Caltech. ^-^
No, Robert Millikan's experiments primarily focused on the photoelectric effect, but his results supported Einstein's explanation of the phenomenon rather than proving him wrong. Specifically, Millikan's work provided further evidence for the particle-like nature of light proposed by Einstein.
Robert Millikan is credited with the discovery of the elementary electronic charge through his oil drop experiment.
Robert Andrews Millikan won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1923 for his measurement of the elementary electric charge, which he determined using his oil-drop experiment. This experiment demonstrated that electric charge is quantized, shedding light on the fundamental nature of electricity.
Robert Millikan conducted his famous oil drop experiment in 1909, which helped to determine the charge of an electron. This experiment led to his noteworthy discovery in 1913 of the fundamental unit of electric charge.
The work of J.J. Thomson and Robert Millikan was most important in determining the mass of an electron. Thomson discovered the electron's existence based on cathode ray experiments, while Millikan conducted the oil drop experiment to measure the charge of the electron and hence its mass.
