Message-ID: <39DB9D42.2D12F2D7@snf.stanford.edu> Users - Wednesday 10/4/00 2:00 PM The cryopump on the amtetcher is working again, and is ready for use. I've changed program #3 so the cryo step will be used before the process starts. Check the other programs and make sure that they will use the cryopump step also. After the cryo was fixed, faults started coming from the turbopump system. The foreline bellows had a leak, so that has been replaced and the foreline rerouted. Also, the pyrex window for the operators viewport has been replaced (you can actually see the wafers on the hex now!). As usual, please send me an e-mail if you experience any more problems with the machine.

Cryo temperature this morning is about 16deg K. I've changed recipe#3 to use the cryopump step, but you need to check the other recipes and make sure that they are using the cryopump step also.

I've ordered a replacement & it's coming from Portland. If it arrives Monday morning, the machine should be up & available by Monday afternoon. Len
