=====Suss SB6-8E=====
=====Lab is OPEN=====
We completed our work early and the lab is now open for use.
When the vendor came in to install the new top heater he wasn't able to get the z-axis (elevator motor) to move. He was able to install the new heater and do a PM on the rest of the tool. We are ordering a new z-axis controller on the recommendation of the vendor. If all goes well this should solve the issue and make the bonder fully operational. I'll send out an email once the new controller has been installed.

=====MLA150: Down=====
=====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.
The tool is down due to the intermittent head crash issue. I am waiting to hear back from the vendor as to when we will have someone out to look at it. --Lee

=====EBeam#2: Down=====
=====ICP #2 Maint: Complete=====
Good news is we have repaired and reinstalled the hoist, thanks Mike B. and Bill. I have tested it and everything looks good.


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
However, the repaired bell jar mount is not sliding down the hoist pole like it should. Since the repair involved some welding to the collar that slides down the hoist pole, we surmise that the concentricity was affected by the heat. The mount is back at the machine shop getting honed out. I should have it back to test late today/early tomorrow but it may have to go back again. Once it is able to slide on properly the tool should be up shortly thereafter.

=====YES EcoClean: 3kW only=====
=====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.
I swapped out the RF generator and the tool is working again. I am getting repeated CCP warnings for the 0.7kW recipes so we will need to look into that further.


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.
System is up for 3kW recipes only.


Please use the original tool name on SUM to make all future tool reservations.
DO NOT run 0.7kW recipes until further notice!!


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.

=====Wafer Bonder, (Suss SB6-8E)=====
A third party bonder repair company will be out here the week of the 26th. The goal is to install the new top heater and then to do a full PM. If all goes well the tool will be available to use late that week. I’ll send out another email once I have more information. Thanks, Aidan.

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.

Two vendors for cleanroom belts we are using are listed here, you may request others:
