伏打是意大利物理学家。1745年2月18日生于科摩,成年后出于好奇去研究自然规律。1774年伏打担任科摩大学预科物理教授。同年发明了起电盘,这是靠静电原理提供的装置。伏打还研究了化学,进行气体的爆炸实验。1782年他成为法国科学学会的成员,1791年他又被选为伦敦皇室学会的成员。1794年伏打由于在电学、化学上的贡献,荣获柯普莱奖章。1800年他宣布发明了伏打电堆。1801年法国科学院赠予伏打一枚金质勋章。
Volta is an Italian physicist. Born on February 18, 1745 in Como, he was out of curiosity to study the laws of nature. In 1774, Volta served as a professor of physics at Como University. The same year, invented the starting plate, which is provided by the electrostatic principle. Volta also studied chemistry and conducted gas explosion experiments. In 1782 he became a member of the French Academy of Sciences. In 1791 he was elected member of the Royal Society of London. In 1794 Volta won the Kepler Medal for his electrical and chemical contributions. In 1800 he announced the invention of a voltaic reactor. In the year 1801, the French Academy of Sciences presented a golden medal to Volta.
