Abstract: A neuromodulation therapy is delivered via at least one electrode implanted subcutaneously and superficially to a fascia layer superficial to a nerve of a patient. In one example, an implantable medical device is deployed along a superficial surface of a deep fascia tissue layer superficial to a nerve of a patient. Electrical stimulation energy is delivered to the nerve through the deep fascia tissue layer via implantable medical device electrodes.

Abstract: Disclosed is a metal-clad laminate product having a carrier film, a aqueous soluble release or parting layer deposited onto the carrier film and which can be mechanically separated from the carrier film, and an ultra thin metal layer deposited onto the parting layer. Also disclosed is a method for making the metal-clad laminate product.

Abstract: The invention relates to the manufacture of printed circuit boards having improved interlayer adhesion. More particularly, the present invention pertains to adhesiveless printed circuit boards having excellent thermal performance and useful for producing high-density circuits. A metal foil coated with a polyimide film is laminated onto an etched surface of a polyimide substrate. Etching the substrate surface allows for strong adhesion of a pure polyimide film to the substrate.

Abstract: A metal-clad laminate product including a carrier film, a release agent layer, a semi-transparent metal layer and a photo dielectric layer deposited on the conductive metal layer and a method for using the metal-clad laminate product to form an interlayer via by exposing at least a portion of an circuit board intermediate prepared from the metal-clad laminate product to light through the semi-transparent metal layer for a period of time sufficient to form an exposed or an unexposed photo dielectric portion and thereafter removing the exposed or unexposed portion of the photo dielectric layer and a corresponding portion of the semi-transparent metal layer overlying the exposed or unexposed portion of the photo dielectric layer to form an interlayer via.

Abstract: Novel polyindanebisphenols or PIBPs for the preparation of new and improved thermosetting polymers having the general formula of ##STR1## are provided. Also disclosed are thermoplastic or thermoset compositions prepared using the novel compounds of the invention, as well as methods of making and using the same. When copolymerized or reactive with other commercial resins such as, e.g., epoxy compounds, PIBP based polymers are characterized by high glass transition temperature ("Tg"), low dielectric constant, low moisture absorption, low coefficient of expansion, low cost, and can be processed on equipment typically used for the production of epoxy based laminates.

Abstract: A frozen, aerated cake frosting is prepared by pasteurizing and homogenizing a blend of sweeteners, water, fat, protein, emulsifiers and stabilizers, cooling and tempering the resulting emulsion and then whipping the tempered emulsion. Thereafter the whipped emulsion is combined with powdered sucrose at a weight ratio of 0.2 to 0.4:1 and the blend is frozen. The protein component is desirably a sodium-calcium caseinate complex having a sodium to calcium ratio of 0.25 to 1.0:1.
