A tool holder assembly and method for intentionally inducing modulation in a machining process. The tool holder assembly is configured for mounting in a tool block on a machining apparatus and includes a tool holder body configured to be secured to the tool block of the machining apparatus, a tool holder mounted on the tool holder body and configured for securing a cutting tool thereto, and a device for imposing a superimposed modulation on the tool holder so as to move the cutting tool relative to the tool holder body and thereby relative to the tool. The tool holder assembly is useful in a process for producing chips having a desired shape and size, and particularly to a method of controllably producing nanocrystalline chips.

The present invention provides methods and products made thereby, wherein a reactive starch constituent, including an edible constituent, is thermally treated to react it, preferably in a dynamic process environment, to produce products ranging from high to quite low densities and from very strong to soft to apparently dry textures. The wide range of textures enables the provision of food products such as low calorie, digestible and safe, long duration pet food chews. Cooking is preferably carried in an extruder, preferably at low moisture or in the total absence of added water. The methods of dynamic cooking reduce cost in a number of ways including but not limited to decreased process steps, increased throughput, decreased capital expenses and decreased raw product cost. The present invention provides an edible composition that is produced using pre-activated particles, mixing them with solvents providing bonds, inputting energy into the mixture via an extrusion process, which results in a firm cohesive material.

A charged particle beam detection system that includes a Faraday cup detector array (FCDA) for position-sensitive charged particle beam detection is described. The FCDA is combined with an electronic multiplexing unit (MUX) that allows collecting and integrating the charge deposited in the array, and simultaneously reading out the same. The duty cycle for collecting the ions is greater than 98%. This multiplexing is achieved by collecting the charge with a large number of small and electronically decoupled Faraday cups. Because Faraday cups collect the charge independent of their charge state, each cup is both a collector and an integrator. The ability of the Faraday cup to integrate the charge, in combination with the electronic multiplexing unit, which reads out and empties the cups quickly compared to the charge integration time, provides the almost perfect duty cycle for this position-sensitive charged particle detector. The device measures further absolute ion currents, has a wide dynamic range from 1.7 pA to 1.2 μA with a crosstalk of less than 750:1. The integration of the electronic multiplexing unit with the FCDA further allows reducing the number of feedthroughs that are needed to operate the detector.

A metal structure (600) for a bonding pad on integrated circuit wafers, which have interconnecting metallization (101) protected by an insulating layer (102) and selectively exposed by windows in the insulating layer. The structure comprises a patterned seed metal layer (104) positioned on the interconnecting metallization exposed by the window so that the seed metal establishes ohmic contact to the metallization as well as a practically impenetrable seal of the interface between the seed metal and the insulating layer. Further, a metal stud (301) is formed on the seed metal and aligned with the window. The metal stud is conformally covered by a barrier metal layer (501) and an outermost bondable metal layer (502).
