Abstract: A surgical clip (10) is provided for ligating or transecting tissue, such as vessels, other tubular ducts, and the like and a surgical clip applier device (100) for delivering and applying the surgical clip (10) to the tissue. The surgical clip can include a spine (12) and opposed arms extending from the spine where the arms (14,16) can define a clamping length (l). In a resting state, the clip can be biased to a closed position such that the ends of each opposed arm (14,16) are disposed in proximity to each other. With such biasing, when applied to a tissue, such as with a surgical clip applier (100), the clip (10) can exert a positive clamping pressure to the tissue along the clamping length to seal the tissue and limit passage of fluids, such as blood, from the tissue.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method according to the part of the surface of the semiconductor body adjoining the opening and which is to be kept free is provided with a cover layer after which the high-crystalline layer is formed by means of a deposition process. The material of the cover layer can then easily be chosen such that it can be selectively etched relative to the silicon underneath. In addition, the cover layer can easily be selectively deposited on the relevant part of the surface because use can be made of an anisotropic deposition process. In such a process the cover layer is not deposited in the hollow and on the bottom of the hollow. It will be apparent that for the high-crystalline layer also other materials can be chosen such as SiGe having such low Ge contents that the SiGe cannot be etched selectively very well compared to the Silicon.
