Fwd: Re: Shutdown asml SNF 2009-08-24 19:08:00: Wafer lost in system

[Ed Myers]

All,

The necessity to inspect and verify the wafers have clean backsides 
has been emphasized since the arrival of the ASML.  The lack of 
following protocol on the ASML resulted in an  12 hour, overnight 
shutdown for the tool last night and we had a similar event on the 
2st.  The lab member community did feel the effect on the 2st, as 
Linda was able to run to the parking lot and stop Joey before he left 
for the day.  In both cases, there is obvious contamination on the 
wafer backside indicating a lack of following procedure.

If the trend of not inspecting the wafers prior to going in to the 
ASML continues rise the staff will also become more aggressive in our 
response.  Please break this cycle and spend the extra minutes and 
inspect your wafers.

Regards,
Ed
