Unaxis ICP-PECVD Update

Unfortunately the shipment of repaired parts was significantly delayed. I will be installing them and testing on Tuesday. With any luck the system will be available Tuesday evening.

Dicing Saw Service Visit

The annual PM on the tool has been completed. However, there is still the issue with the chuck not rotating a perfect 90 degrees after aligning the first angle, so you will still have to perform alignment for angle #2. ADT is looking into sending us a cal plate to try and rectify this as the first potential solution.

Velion FIB Tool DOWN

Raith service have completed the source change, resolved the power supply and column alignment issues, and restored the Pt deposition capability to full capacity. With remote assistance from Raith I will run some calibrations and stability tests over the next few days. After that I will return the tool to general use towards the end of the week.

The new ion source is AuGeSi. We have no plans to return to GaBiLi for the foreseeable future. Please get in contact if you have any questions.

-I will have to take the AFM head unit back to Bruker for repair. The height sensor failed all the tests I tried so the Z-piezo/strain gauge unit will most likely need to be replaced.  SO for the foreseeable future, the AFM is down.--Demis

-=====MA6 TSA is down - Update=====
-After working with our FSE over the phone, we feel the culprit is a bound up Y axis motor for the top side microscope. Unfortunately, this axis is at the bottom of the microscope assembly and will require the removal of both the X and Z axis sub assemblies. I am awaiting proper instructions on how to dismantle all of this and the FSE is also checking with some of their contacts to see if there is an easier solution.

-I have been asked by a few users about using the tool in TSA mode for exposures that do not require alignment even through the topside microscope is not functional. I have just tested the tool in TSA mode and it will work like this, just note that the topside microscope will not come down.
