Novel magenta and cyan colorants for utilization within water-based inks are provided which exhibit improved chromatic properties. Parts of the top surfaces of the folded metal frames contact the electrodes of semiconductor device placed inside the focusing cup. A determination is made of an operation being performed with respect to the resource. In some examples, the self-aligned electrodes may be formed on the metal in the vias, and the self-aligned electrodes may not be formed in openings that do not reside over the metal filled vias. The apparatus and method operatively sequences to place and remove differently structured core segments individually into and from the assembled core configuration. Shape and dimensions of the inner cross section are essentially uniform along the longitudinal axis.
