-Once the dataset has been acquired, it is possible to further increase resolution by giving away some of spectral quality. The peaks may be made more narrow by using **apodization window function** such as **gaussian** or **sin-squared**. The caveat is that you "pay" with spectral quality for any resolution improvement you get in this step. In particular, spectral noise and artifacts around peaks become stronger. Our goal is to strike a balance between resolution (improved enough for your purposes) and sensitivity (degraded to yet a tolerable degree).+Once the dataset has been acquired, it is possible to further increase resolution by giving away some of spectral quality.
