The Metallurgy Division is organized into four research groups that comprise our core expertise. By virtue of the interdisciplinary nature of materials problems in the industrial and metrology sectors that we serve, our research program teams are assembled across group, division and laboratory boundaries to best meet our project goals. We are committed to assembling the expertise and resources to fulfill our technical goals with the speed and quality necessary to have the desired impact.
Our current research portfolio focuses on fulfilling specific measurement needs of the magnetic data storage, microelectronics packaging, automotive, aerospace, and optoelectronics industries and on establishing national traceable hardness standards needed for international trade. Our output consists of a variety of forms, from scientific publications elucidating fundamental materials behavior to measurement techniques, standard reference materials, evaluated data, software tools, and sensors for on-line process control. Information about our programs and accomplishments may be found in our Annual Report.
