EBeam #4: Down for Upgrades

Down through the week of Monday the 12th, installing new HV/Sweep controller.

Users will need retraining on these new components once the system is back up. // [[User:John d|Posted:] 09:50, 6 March 2018 (PST)

PECVD #2: UP with possible High Particulates

We found an issue that most likely contributed to the high particle count. We will verify the particle count on Monday. Until then, I will release the system for use, but please assume the particle count is still high if running the tool before further notice. I will send out an email with the updated particle count Monday afternoon. // Posted: 17:24, 16 March 2018 (PDT)
