Abstract: A lift pin actuator includes a castellated annulus, a first arm, a second arm, and a pin pad. The annulus arranged along a rotation axis and has a first merlon and a second merlon circumferentially separated by a crenel. The first arm is connected to the first merlon and extends outward from the annulus, the second arm is connected to the second merlon and extends outward from the annulus, and the second arm is circumferentially spaced from the first arm by a radial gap. The pin pad is connected to the annulus by the first arm and the second arm, is radially spaced from the annulus by the radial gap, and radially overlaps the crenel to nest a support member within the lift pin actuator during translation of the lift pin actuator along the rotation axis relative to the support member. Process kits, semiconductor processing systems, methods of making lift pin actuators and related material layer deposition methods are also described.

Abstract: A turbine rotor disc includes a plurality of attachment slots for receiving firtree-profiled blade roots. Each attachment slot is formed in an undulating profile having substantially smoothly curved and laterally, alternately recessed and projecting portions. At least one pair of substantially smoothly curved projecting portions being truncated at a tip thereof, respectively.

Abstract: A process for preparing substituted 5-amino-pyrazolo[4,3-e]-1,2,4-triazolo-[1,5-c]pyrimidine compounds having an aminoalkyl substituent at the 7-position is disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to the synthesis of 4-[4-[(R)-[1-[cyclopropylsulfonyl)-4-piperidinyl](3-fluorophenyl)methyl]-3(S)-methyl-1-piperazinyl]-1-[(4,6-dimethyl-5-pyrimidinyl)carbonyl]-4-methylpiperidine], and intermediates therefor from readily available starting materials by a novel route.

Abstract: The present invention is generally directed to a process to directly prepare pharmaceutically acceptable salts enriched with respect to selected rotameric salts of a basic compound, by creative choice of an acid and a solvent medium. The process is particularly useful in preparing specific rotamers of pharmaceutically useful salts in desired preponderance of a rotamer.

Abstract: A process for preparing substituted 5-amino-pyrazolo[4,3-e]-1,2,4-triazolo-[1,5-c]pyrimidine compounds having an aminoalkyl substituent at the 7-position is disclosed.

Abstract: There is provided a locator device and an associated fixture and method for supporting a rotatable member. The locator device has a base and a plurality of flanges extending from the base in an axial direction and arranged circumferentially to define an aperture for at least partially receiving the rotatable member axially. The flanges defining slots for receiving radial portions of the rotatable member with the radial portions extending radially outward from the flanges. Thus, the locator device can support boreless rotatable members so that a tool can be supported against the radial portions of the rotatable member to thereby form the rotatable member to predetermined dimensions.
