===== Raith EBL Update =====
Raith replaced every item that was left to replace in the column on Monday. Yesterday they performed some quick tests @ 50kV and the issue with deflector settling was gone. This is an extremely positive result! It almost certainly suggests that the issue has been repaired. However, tests @ 100 kV remain to confirm the behavior and we are doing so later today and early tomorrow morning.


=====RIE #5 Down=====
I am pretty confident that we are going to have a fully functional EBL system available for use early next week!
RIE #5 will be down Monday March 13th through the end of Wednesday March 15th for maintenance.

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.

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. -Aidan // Demis D. John 00:35, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

ICP1 Down

The board we were waiting on arrived, but it did not resolve the tool issue. We are working with Panasonic on the next steps. //Vraj Mehalana 14:17, 1 March 2024 (PST)
