I do agree with Ruby and Tino that, although these three did a lot of moving and shaking, they didn't change the discipline of science. What they did instead was broaden our horizons, opening up new topics for discussion and exploration, and changed the way we look at our universe.
How they did this: Bohr contributed his theories on the "stationary states" like what Mark and others have said. He also showed us that the wave/particle duality is all a matter of how you perform your experiment. Also he did a lot of other cool stuff that people have talked about here. Heisenberg, like people have said, decided to do math instead of looking at visual representations of the atom to find the truth about quantum mechanics and such. Schrodinger, I'm not totally sure what he did. I know he killed a cat in the process and has a theory about the wave properties of matter? He mostly changed how look at cats in boxes.
