... ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE OF THE LABORATORY The Electronics and Electrical Engineering Laboratory is currently organized in four divisions -- the Optoelectronics Division, the Semiconductor Electronics Division, the Quantum Electrical Metrology Division, and the Electromagnetics Division -- and two additional operating offices: the Office of Law Enforcement Standards and the Office of Microelectronics Programs. The two offices were not subject to this formal assessment.
