Abstract: In forming a counter electrode in an FFS type liquid crystal display apparatus, a slit is not provided in a first pixel in which it has been found, in advance, that a bright spot defect is to occur by a defect inspection apparatus or the like. In the pixel without the slit, since a fringe electric field that has possibly occurred near the slit does not occur, a black spot defect can be obtained even if a signal potential is inputted to a pixel electrode.

Abstract: A photoelectric conversion apparatus includes: an active matrix-type TFT array substrate on which photoelectric conversion elements and thin film transistors are arranged in a matrix shape, wherein the photoelectric conversion element connects with a drain electrode via a contact hole opened through a first interlayer insulation film provided above the thin film transistor, wherein a data line and a bias line are connected with the source electrode and the photoelectric conversion element via respective contact holes opened through the second interlayer insulation, and wherein at least a part of the photoelectric conversion element is fixed to have a shape different from a normal pixel between pixels adjacent to each other in an extending direction of the gate line, and an electrical connection between the photoelectric conversion element and the data line is cut off in the transistor of the pixel having the different shape.

The upper portion of container 1? is equipped with gas discharge tube 3 for discharging the carrier gas containing the organic metal compound.

Abstract: Oxamide is produced in a high purity by a process comprising (A) melting a starting material comprising 70 to 100 wt % of an oxalic acid diester of an aliphatic alcohol and 0 to 30 wt % of the same aliphatic alcohol as mentioned above, (B) feed-mixing an ammonia-containing gas to the starting material melt, while stirring, to produce oxamide and the aliphatic alcohol (by-product), (C) continuing the ammonia-feed-mixing procedure while controlling a feed rate of ammonia to an extent such that a content of the aliphatic alcohol in the reaction mixture is maintained at a level of 3 to 45% by weight, to produce a wetted solid reaction product comprising the resultant oxamide and the aliphatic alcohol, and then (D) collecting the oxamide from the reaction product by evaporating away the aliphatic alcohol.

Abstract: Oxamide granules are produced by (A) feed-mixing ammonia to a starting material comprising 60 to 100 weight % of a diester of oxalic acid with a C.sub.1-6 aliphatic alcohol, and 0 to 40 weight % of the same aliphatic alcohol as mentioned above, to produce oxamide and the aliphatic alcohol as by-product, while controlling the aliphatic alcohol content to 5 to 40% based on the weight of the reaction mixture to provide the resultant oxamide wetted by the aliphatic alcohol; (B) granulating the wetted product while maintaining the content of the aliphatic alcohol at a level of 5 to 40% based on the weight of the wetted reaction product; (C) heat-evaporating away the aliphatic alcohol from the wetted granules; and optionally (D) re-wetting the resultant dry oxamide granules with water in an amount of 5 to 20% based on the weight of the dry oxamide granules; and (E) re-drying the re-wetted oxamide granules, to provide oxamide granules having an enhanced mechanical strength and form-stability in water.
