Millikan was awarded Nobel prize for Physics in 1923 'for his work on the elementary charge of electricity and on the photo-electric effect' Millikan's "oil drop experiment" (not included here) is performed every year by many students. Similarly, there are many useful experiments found here for anyone with a bent towards tinkering, or learning the fundamentals of physics through laboratory experiments.
