Manufacturing method of active matrix substrate, active matrix substrate and liquid crystal display device

A method of manufacturing an active matrix substrate is provided that uses a technique of transferring a thin film device. In forming thin film transistors and pixel electrodes on an original substrate before transfer, an insulator film such as an interlayer insulation film or the like, is previously removed before the pixel electrodes are formed. Further, the original substrate is separated by exfoliation to transfer the device to a transfer material to cause the pixel electrodes to partially appear in the surface or the vicinity of the surface of the device. This portion permits application of a voltage to a liquid crystal through the pixel electrode.

Medical access sheath

An expandable sheath is insertable into a patient through an incision. Once inserted and advanced to the target surgical site, the sheath can be expanded to an enlarged diameter. The wall of the sheath is fabricated from a tubular structure comprising filamentous elements that extend axially and at least partially circumferentially along the length of the sheath. The tubular filamentous material is drawn or expanded axially to create the small diameter configuration that is inserted into the patient. A standoff attaches the distal end of the tubular filamentous material to the sheath hub by way of radially movable anchors. Additional filamentous tubular material extends out the proximal end of the hub. A compression mechanism forces the additional filamentous tubular material in the distal direction which causes axial compression and radial or diametric dilation of the working length of the sheath, that part of the sheath that extends beyond the proximal end of the hub. Radial dilation is accomplished with no substantial change in sheath working length.
