In 1909, Robert Millikan was the first to find the charge of an electron
in his now-famous oil-drop experiment. In that experiment, tiny oil
drops were sprayed into a uniform electric field between a horizontal
pair of oppositely charged plates.The drops were observed with a
magnifying eyepiece, and the electric field was adjusted so that the
upward force on some negatively charged oil drops was just sufficient to
balance the downward force of gravity. That is, when suspended, upward
force qE just equaled mg. Millikan accurately measured the charges on
many oil drops and found the values to be whole number multiples of
$1.6 \times 10^{-19} C$ the charge of the electron. For this, he won
the Nobel prize. Extra electrons on this particular oil drop (given the presently known charge of the electron) are :
