(JEOL JBX-6300FS) - 07/31: System still DOWN
The issues still remain but the investigation is pointing to a couple of boards in an external control computer. JEOL service are running a test overnight to try isolate the issue. Hopefully more will be known in the morning.
System down for now... //Vraj Mehalana 18:52, 31 July 2024 (PDT)
Unaxis ICP-PECVD Update
Unfortunately the shipment of repaired parts was significantly delayed. I will be installing them and testing on Tuesday. With any luck the system will be available Tuesday evening.

Dicing Saw Service Visit
The annual PM on the tool has been completed. However, there is still the issue with the chuck not rotating a perfect 90 degrees after aligning the first angle, so you will still have to perform alignment for angle #2. ADT is looking into sending us a cal plate to try and rectify this as the first potential solution.

Velion FIB Tool DOWN
Raith service have completed the source change, resolved the power supply and column alignment issues, and restored the Pt deposition capability to full capacity. With remote assistance from Raith I will run some calibrations and stability tests over the next few days. After that I will return the tool to general use towards the end of the week.
The new ion source is AuGeSi. We have no plans to return to GaBiLi for the foreseeable future. Please get in contact if you have any questions.
