Catheter system for connecting adjacent blood vessels

The catheter apparatus may be used to assist in creating a fistula between two adjacent blood vessels. The apparatus includes a catheter for inserting into a first blood vessel which lies adjacent to a second blood vessel, the catheter having a plurality of openings through which a physician may navigate a piercing tool. The physician maneuvers the tip of the catheter to a position within the first blood vessel adjacent to a portion of the first blood vessel wall in which the physician intends to create an opening. The physician may then rotate the piercing tool within the catheter and extend the piercing tool through one opening at a time, without rotating the catheter, until the physician chooses an opening that is properly aimed at the second blood vessel. Such a configuration allows for a wide arc of potential firing space.

Access to printing material container

The present invention provides a storage device that enables identification data to be readily rewritten and ensures normal completion of a data writing operation in a short time period. In the storage device of the invention, an ID comparator determines whether or not identification data transmitted from a host computer coincides with identification data stored in a memory array. In the case of coincidence, the ID comparator sends an access enable signal EN to an operation code decoder. The operation code decoder analyzes a write / read command, switches over a direction of data transfer with regard to the memory array based on a result of the analysis, and requires an I / O controller to change a high impedance setting of a signal line connecting with a data terminal DT. This series of processing allows access to an address in the memory array specified by a count on an address counter.

Fabrication and Harvest of Piezoelectric Plates

A method is provided for fabricating piezoelectric plates. A sacrificial layer is formed overlying a growth substrate. A template layer, with openings exposing sacrificial layer surfaces, is formed over the sacrificial layer. An adhesion layer / first electrode stack is selectively deposited in the openings overlying the sacrificial layer surfaces, and a piezoelectric material formed in the openings overlying the stack. Then, a second electrode is formed overlying the piezoelectric material. Using the second electrode as a hardmask, the piezoelectric material is etched to form polygon-shaped structures, such as disks, attached to the sacrificial layer surfaces. After removing the template layer and annealing, the polygon-shaped structures are separated from the sacrificial layer. With the proper choice of growth substrate material, the annealing can be performed at a relatively high temperature.
