=====Unaxis ICP-PECVD Update=====
=====Lab is OPEN=====
We completed our work early and the lab is now open for use.
It took me a while to weed through the issues as nothing was making sense. What I have found is all of our spare matching networks of this particular type are bad. I will be sending them out for repair and update you all when I have an eta to get the system back online.

=====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.


=====Olympus DSX Microscope: Down=====

After speaking with Olympus it looks like there is a problem with the polarizer that is interfering with basic system initialization. I'm waiting for the repair quote and will update everyone when we know more.

=====Velion FIB Tool DOWN=====
=====ICP #2 Maint: Complete=====
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 maintenance is completed and the tool is finishing up an O2 clean run. We are still seeing a 0.04-0.05 Pa actual pressure difference in the software (as before the maint work) which we will address tomorrow, as the tool needs time to reach base pressure. -- Lee Sawyer
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.

The tool is useable and in its original condition. If you had a reservation under the previous tool designation it has already been moved over for you.


Chamber 1 is operational and available for use. However, only recipes that run at 300C are to be ran on the tool, as the current thermocouple is only calibrated for that temperature at this time.

Please use the original tool name on SUM to make all future tool reservations.
=====Lab Access Changes: Symmetry App=====
The iris scanner has been decommissioned. Please use the card reader which supports:


There is no longer a need for supplemental training. If you have been previously trained on the tool but not received the supplemental training, you can once again reserve and use the tool.
-Physical card


Please feel free to email me directly with any questions you may have.

=====New Gowns: Toolbelts purchases=====
We are required to switch to new gowns in January. The new gowns won’t have pockets, but you are allowed to purchase cleanroom tool belts. Please ask staff for which tool belts you can purchase.
SUSS aims to be on site in early February. We’ll will send out an email once I get confirmation for a specific date.

=====Suss SB6-8E=====
We found a blown resistor (and a questionable op amp) on one of the boards that contains the z-axis motor circuit. However, we still cannot get the tool to initialize. Next we will try swapping out the hard drive again and run some more tests.

I will send out an update once we have one.

Oxford ALD+Ion Mill: UP

The tool is useable and in its original condition. If you had a reservation under the previous tool designation it has already been moved over for you.

Chamber 1 is operational and available for use. However, only recipes that run at 300C are to be ran on the tool, as the current thermocouple is only calibrated for that temperature at this time.

Please use the original tool name on SUM to make all future tool reservations.

There is no longer a need for supplemental training. If you have been previously trained on the tool but not received the supplemental training, you can once again reserve and use the tool.

Please feel free to email me directly with any questions you may have.
