Microscopic mix strengthens magnet Magnets are usually an either-or proposition. They either generate a strong magnetic field or they hold up well in the presence of external magnetic fields. A method that mixes the two types of magnets at the nanoscale could pave the way for smaller electric motors and generators. |

Infrared headset nixes radiation Many cell-phone users have taken to using hands-free headsets to avoid the microwave radiation the devices emit, but the electrical wires that connect the headsets to the phones can also act as antennas for microwaves. A headset that connects via infrared light sidesteps the radiation problem. |
