Good Morning Raith Community:
It was a very strange day yesterday with several unusual problems on
the tool. In the morning I arrive to find someone had turned off
the Laser interferometer Power supply using the front panel switch.
Currently I have placed the system into yellow mode and users whom
do not need to write field to write field stitch their patterns can
likely successfully write on the system. You will perform your
operations under coder stage control and not on the laser
interferometer control. We encountered problems with the stage
control hardware evidenced by clicking noises of relays in the unit
after completing X-Y motions. This is an intermittent problem and
you may not encounter an problem during your run. I had the system
working and tested several times through the evening last night only
to have it resurface with the next Users shortly after I left the
lab.
Users are reminded that the Ebeam Lab is a restricted area and no
lab members other than qualified Users of our beamtools are to be in
the lab without an escort. You have my permission to confront any
User entering the lab for any reason and obtain their lab member
name and report them to me.
