RIE#5: SiCl4 Issue

We have a flow rate problem on the SiCl4 gas line. You can only flow the SiCl4 for 5 minutes and then you have to wait 5 minutes before you flow it again. So in order to to do a 10 minute Etch you will have to do it in three steps flow 5 mi, wait 5mi, then flow 5min. // John d 17:22, 15 June 2018 (PDT)

AFM Down

The laser/laser focus is struggling on the AFM. We have taken the AFM head to Bruker for a tune-up/repair. The system will be down until some time this week. // John d 16:17, 12 June 2018 (PDT)

Solvent Bench Bay 7 - Heated Bath

We have disabled the auto refill due to a high water level. Please use the manual fill and a manual drain button at the center top of the head case. Users of the bath might need to fill or drain as you insert/remove your beakers. Please be careful with other user's beakers. // John d 17:18, 6 June 2018 (PDT)
