Unaxis ICP-PECVD is DOWN
RF1 continues to be a problem. I will start the process of elimination from a hardware point of view Monday. Once I resolve the hardware issue our Process group will be exclusively running the system for about a week. During this time we will NOT be allowing anyone else to use the system. Sorry for the inconvenience. //Vraj Mehalana 14:17, 22 September 2023 (PDT)

I went to check the tool out this morning and found it was not pumping down properly. After further inspection of the tool I found that the lid's quartz liner has cracked. Contacting EVG but the tool will probably be down for some time. I will updated everyone once I have an estimated down time. //Vraj Mehalana 11:39, 25 September 2023 (PDT)
