| The Division of Physics, previously the Physics Section, was part of the National Standards Laboratory, along with the Divisions of Metrology and Electrotechnology. At the conclusion of the Second World War the Physics Section became the Division of Physics. Almost thirty years later, in 1974, the National Standards Laboratory was renamed the National Measurement Laboratory. This incorporated the Divisions of Physics and Applied Physics. The Division of Applied Physics reappeared in 1980, when the National Measurement Laboratory was renamed. |
