Microsoft advocates new WiFi-NC to make use of white spaces in spectrum
(PhysOrg.com) -- Four years ago, the FCC began allowing limited use of the so-called white spaces in the electromagnetic spectrum that is shared by all wireless devices (in the United States). The white spaces ...
'Reversing the problem' clarifies molecular structure
Optical techniques enable us to examine single molecules, but do we really understand what we are seeing? After all, the fuzziness caused by effects such as light interference makes these images very difficult to interpret. ...
