Abstract

HISTORY OF RESEARCH LABORATORIES

Nearly 70 years ago a small laboratory was planned for research into incandescent lamps. Since then, during peace and war, it has grown to become one of the premier research centres in the UK, with R and D activities across a wide range of new and not-so-new technologies
