AT&T Bell Laboratories is spending approximately 10 percent of its$2.6 billion annual budget on basic scientific research. This research and subsequent development is, however, focused on product lines with initial commercial applications and for use in military systems. Competition has more closely coupled the research and development focus to customer needs and market demands. Navy programs account for close to 50 percent of special technology design work, making the Navy the largest single customer with emphasis in sensors and fiber optics for undersea surveillance technology. This laboratory in Whippany, New Jersey, draws on research from other AT&T facilities located nearby in Murray Hill and Holmdel. The technology drivers for Bell Laboratories programs are advanced semiconductors, such as sub-micron gallium arsenide and silicon; advanced packaging using silicon on silicon multichips; military qualified fiber optic networking; high performance optical switching; and high-density/speed backplanes.
