ETH Zurich Develops a Single-chip Microsensor System to Analyse Gases
There are many target application areas envisaged for the gas sensor chip. Air quality in closed rooms can be monitored. The presence of dangerous - even poisonous - substances in the air can be detected, such as benzene from petrol pumps or perchloroethylene from dry-cleaning installations, and warnings can then be issued. Low-cost Mass... view more... (2001-11-14)
New NIST method reveals all you need to know about 'waveforms'
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has unveiled a method for calibrating entire waveforms-graphical shapes showing how electrical signals vary over time-rather than just parts of waveforms as is current practice. view more (2009-10-07)
