Successive improvements in battery technology facilitated major electrical advances, from early scientific studies to the rise of telegraphs and telephones, eventually leading to portable computers, mobile phones, electric cars, and many other electrical devices. Students and engineers developed several commercially important types of battery.
French mathematician Pierre-Simon Laplace developed the Laplace transform to transform a linear differential equation into an algebraic equation. Later, his transform became a tool in circuit analysis. 1800: Italian physicist Alessandro Volta invented the battery. 1804: Thomas Young: Wave theory of light, Vision and color theory: 1808
