=====DSE is UP=====
I’ve completed the installation of the new spool and lamps and the tool is free to use. We’ve run a number of different etches and upon initial inspection everything looks normal. However, it’s recommended you start with a test etch in case there is a slight shift in process.


=====Oxford ALD+Ion Mill=====
Thanks, Aidan
The vendor (Oxford) will be on site Tuesday the 10th until Friday the 13th to address various issues with this tool and it will be unavailable for use. -- Millerski

=====Holography/PL: HeCd Laser Down Mon Dec 16th=====
=====Focused Ion Beam (Raith Velion) - TOOL DOWN for Raith Service=====
The 325nm UV Laser will be unavailable from Mon. Dec 16th, through the christmas shutdown, and will be available again on Monday Jan 6th (or possibly earlier).
Raith service need to work on the Velion a little longer than anticipated. I'll keep the tool down until 2pm tomorrow (Tuesday). I'll send further updates if anything changes.
We will be installing the refurbished laser which will have higher output power.


Holography will be unavailable during this time, but all other PL lasers will be available.

=====MLA150: UP=====
=====Lab Shutdown: Dec 26 to Jan 3rd=====
Optical AF has been calibrated and Defocus + Dose values are the same as before. PneuAF has not been checked et, but we expect a shift in PneuAF Defocus due to the Pneumatic nozzle replacement.

We will be shutting down the lab for year end maintenance activities at 7am December 26th. The current plan is to open back up at 7am on January 3rd. We will update the schedule if needed.
=====Suss SB6-8E=====
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.


During the shutdown this year we will be pulling all cleanroom suits and stocking new suits.

=====YES is available=====
The error has been cleared and I ran a shorter 5 minute recipe with no warning/error.


//[[User:John_d|Demis D. John]] 16:55, 24 November 2024 (UTC)
This seems to be exclusive to the longer (8+ minute recipes), which are throwing warnings for every wafer run this long. It also appears that running 3 wafers on a longer recipe will result in an error and aborted run on the 3rd wafer. We are just going to have to live with this until we have our other generator back. So until then, please limit the longer runs to 2 wafers max. If you have more than 2 wafers to run on a longer recipe then wait about 5-10 minutes in between batches.


=====New Gowns in Jan=====
// [[User:Mehalana v|Vraj Mehalana]] 14:16, 18 September 2024 (PDT)
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 tool belts you can use.

=====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.
