Show detail Hide detail

National Research Council of Canada. Division of Physics : In 1928, the federal government decided to establish National Research Laboratories in Ottawa, for the work of the NRC - specifically a chemistry, physics, biology and engineering lab. By 1939, the Division of Physics and Electrical Engineering was created and by 1946, Electrical Engineering was joined with Radio, leaving a Division of Physics. In 1955, the Division was divided into Pure and Applied Physics, although they were reunited in 1969. By the re-organization of the 1990s, the work of the Division was divided into several different Institutes including, the Institute for National Measurement Standards, the Institute for Microstructural Sciences, etc.
