The cleaning will commence at 6:00PM on the following evenings: 2nd flr. CIS 12/10/01 1st flr. CIS 12/11/01 (includes SNF general space) 3rd flr. CISX 12/12/01 1st, 2nd flr. CISX 12/13/01 Basement CISX 12/17/01 The cleanroom is not affected by these activities. This service is part of the annual building maintenance program by Facilities Operations. Motorized maintenance equipment, detergents and liquid polish chemicals will be used. Maintenance personnel are generally instructed not to move furniture, equipment or obstacles. They will clean all areas that are accessible and free of obstructions. To get the best results of this service you need to have furniture (chairs) and other items off the floor before 6:00 p.m. on your scheduled date. Thanks for your cooperation, Dick Crane 5-3665 From flannery at stanford.edu Mon Dec 3 09:39:29 2001 From: flannery at stanford.edu (Anthony Flannery) Date: Mon, 03 Dec 2001 09:39:29 -0800 Subject: Silicon Nitride Question References: <5.1.0.14.2.20011202160918.00b0e040@snow.stanford.edu> Message-ID: <3C0BB8D1.D582EFDA@stanford.edu> It is relatively conformal, aspect ratio dependent. If you've got a 50 um trench that is 50 um wide, you'll get pretty conformal coating. If the trench is 10 um wide, you'll get thinning as it moves towards the bottom. This hasn't been quantified that I know of. Evan Thrush wrote: > Hello, > > I have a quick question about silicon nitride deposition with the > sts PECVD.

Message-ID: <3C0C1F25.DCD5AF04@snf.stanford.edu> Labmembers: Important dates to note -- 1. Monday, Dec. 17. Lab cleanup. ALL personal items should be removed from the lab by this date. 2. Thursday, Dec. 20. The svgcoat track will be shutdown. 3. Friday, Dec. 21. General lab shutdown commences. Last full day for lab processing will be Dec. 20. 4. Wednesday, Jan. 2. Lab startup begins. New lab storage bins will be allocated. New bunnysuit hangers will be assigned. First full day for lab processing will be Jan. 3. 5. Monday, Jan. 15. Tylan1 bank will be shutdown for move. Details: Lab Cleanup. (For more details, see http://snf.stanford.edu/News/LabCleanup.html) In short, ALL personal items, including wafers, must be removed from the lab, so that staff may rearrange shelving. Ample storage storage outside the lab is available in the CAD room, across from the gowning room (CIS Room 151). If you plan on working in the lab during the week of 12/17, special stickers will be made available. Otherwise, all personal belongings will be removed from the lab by staff. New, standardized personal storage bins will be allocated, beginning at startup, on 1/2/01. Any help from labmembers would be greatly appreciated -- get first pick of personal bins, for two (or more!) hours of volunteer service! (It will be FUN, I promise!) Svgcoat. Svgcoat will be shut down the morning of Dec. 20, so that the new, second svgcoat track can be installed. Please plan your litho needs accordingly! General Lab Shutdown. Beginning at 7 am, tools in the lab will be shutdown. (See http://snf/Labmembers/ShutdownSchedule.html) for the latest schedule. There is no specific schedule for the order in which tools are to be shutdown -- it is advised against scheduling general processing for this day. Lab startup. Begins at 7 am. This is expected to be an all-day process. Limited tools will be available Tuesday, late afternoon. Regular operations are expected by Wed., Jan. 3. Storage bins for personal items will be allocated, beginning Tuesday. Gowning room procedures will change -- labmembers will be assigned hanger numbers, which will also be allocated beginning Tuesday (we hope this will minimize clutter resulting from "hunt-for-my-bunnysuit" exercises we all go through). Tylan1 bank move. In anticipation of the 6" furnace conversion (we're finally starting to clear the hallways of the Intel donations!) tylan1 will be moved starting Jan. 15. The move should be complete, and tylan1 ready for process testing, by Jan. 28. There are a lot of changes coming up -- we can't guarantee that all these transitions will be pain-free, but please bear with us -- these changes will eventually all help to make the lab a better place to work!

Forced air convection has been traditionally used to remove the heat through a large heat sink and fan module. Currently, maximum of 75 W heat, or approximately 45 W/cm2 heat flux, needs to be removed from a latest Pentium 4 processor with 2GHz core frequency. The noise generated from high speed fans is approaching the limit of acceptable level for the proper functioning of electronics. However, the power dissipation density from a single high performance chip is expected to exceed 100 W/cm2 by the year 2005, when the air cooling has to be replaced by new cooling technologies. Among alternative cooling methods, pumped liquid loop cooling with phase change is one of the most promising solutions. A closed-loop silicon microchannel two-phase cooler with an electroosmotic pump has been proposed in our project. This dissertation focuses on the heat transfer and phase change phenomena in sub-150 micron diameter microchannels. Single silicon channels formed on a freestanding beam with integrated heaters and thermometers have been designed and fabricated. The design helps to maintain nearly constant heat flux boundary conditions in the heat transfer measurements. These instrumented microchannels represent the first opportunity to carry out detailed, quantitative experiments on the two-phase flow and heat transfer in sub-150 micron diameter microchannels with the capability for simultaneous optical observation, thermal measurement, and transient pressure measurement. The wall temperature distribution measurement data have been used to validate a two-phase heat transfer model, which for the first time proves that the classical convective coefficient correlations are good for channels below 100 micron hydraulic diameter. Phase-change visualization shows that nucleate boiling happens in down to 26 micron diameter channels and the channel dimension does not limit bubble growth during the nucleation process. The experiments also confirm that cavities in the channel walls can enhance nucleate boiling and help to prevent large amounts of wall superheat during the phase change. A sample design of a two-phase microchannel heat exchanger capable of removing 200 W with 15 ml/min water flow rate and 85 C chip temperature rise will be proposed.

Message-ID: <3C1574A5.33FA284B@snf.stanford.edu> Labmembers: It's one week to the official Lab Cleanup Day! Remember, unless you plan on working the week of Dec. 17-21, please remove all your personal items (personal bins, wafers, glassware, tweezers, etc.) by Monday of that week. On Dec. 17, the SNF staff are going to start removing personal items remaining in the lab, in preparation for reorganizing shelves and storage bins. If you plan to work in the lab that week, please place stickers (to be made available) on your personal items so they are not removed during that week (all items, however, must still be removed by Dec. 21.) Ample storage space is being made available in the CAD room. Please check with Lourdes about obtaining labels and "registering" your personal items in the CAD room. A wipe-down station has been set up in the gowning room. This contains a clean room vacuum, alcohol and wipes, and (soon) a vacuum sealer. We hope this will make transport of personal items into and out of the cleanroom more convenient. Most personal bins and hanger/gown numbers will be assigned over the shutdown. Labmembers showing a significant amount of activity over the past three months (perhaps 20 or more lab hours/month) will automatically be assigned a personal bin and hanger number (except for lab cleanup volunteers, who will get to choose their own!) Other labmembers will need to check in with Lourdes during/after startup to obtain bin and hanger assignments. One more request: please also remove your bunnysuit, if you do not plan to be in the lab. There is a finite turnaround time for cleaning them, and we would like to ensure that there are enough clean bunnysuits to go around for startup. Please understand that this is a work-in-progress -- as we get a better understanding of the available space in the lab and what labmembers' requirements are, we can be more flexible with the rules (within acceptable standards of fairness). Everyone's patience and cooperation are greatly appreciated -- believe me, the lab will be a WONDERFUL place to work, once things are cleaned up! Questions, comments, problems, complaints... yes, keep sending them to me. Mary -- Mary X.

I think everything is explained well but if you have any significant questions or suggestions, let me know. I also posted a copy of this on the CAD room door. CAD Room Storage Metal shelves have been put into the CAD room to provide additional storage space outside of the cleanroom. After the beginning of January, when the new bins are installed inside the cleanroom and users have their most needed materials in these bins, this additional storage space in the CAD room is intended for materials that are still relevant but not needed on a day to day basis: special glassware, new substrates, finished wafers that are only a month old, etc. This space is not intended for archival purposes. If you have wafer boxes in the cleanroom which have not been touched in 6 months or more, do not simply take them out of the cleanroom and put them in the CAD room. Take them to your lab or office for long-term storage. At this point, there is no restrictions on the storage in the CAD room. If all the shelf space fills up however, we will have make some restrictions. Those restrictions will be on the amount of space per labmember (size and number of containers) and the status of their account (have lab charges in the last 3 months). For CAD Room Storage, here is the protocol: 1) When you have your container ready, put it into the CAD room. Please fill the shelves from the front of the room to the back and within a shelf from the top to the bottom. 2) Send an email to true at snf.stanford.edu (before Mon Dec 17th) with the phrase "CAD Room Storage" as the subject of the email. Starting Tues Dec 18th, send the email to lventura at snf.stanford.edu. Please make the time between physically putting the container in the CAD room and emailing short, like 10min or so. In your email, please include the following in order, each on a separate line: 1) Coral Login (all in lower case) 2) First Name (first letter capitalized) 3) Last Name (first letter capitalized) 4) Your Research Group (professor's Name) or Company (i.e. "EE - Harris", "Physics - Cabrera", or "Intel") 5) S,M,L, or Other for the approximate size of the container (with reference to the S,M,&L Sterlite containers in Lourdes' office) or if it's an unusual size (like a standup with drawers), just explain at the end of the email 6) Date (MM/DD/YY) Here's an example: true Randy True Surromed M 12/11/01 Sometime in the following day after your email, I will assign your container a number, enter your info into a spreadsheet, fill out a sticker, and go put that sticker on your container. If you have several containers for one group or company and you'd rather have them indexed under one senior group member, that's fine, but please include in your email that the containers have materials for several labmembers in them and also include their coral logins. If you only have one or two wafer boxes, please store them in plastic ziploc bags at your office, desk or storage locker. If you don't have an office or desk in CIS, then send me email (true at snf.stanford.edu) by Mon, Dec 17th and we will find a solution for this. When you no longer need the space, remove your container then send email to Lourdes at lventura at snf.stanford.edu so she can remove your entry from the spreadsheet (this could be for one or more containers). Thanks for you cooperation, Randy True 12-11-01 From beckwith at snf.stanford.edu Wed Dec 12 09:38:59 2001 From: beckwith at snf.stanford.edu (Sharleen Beckwith) Date: Wed, 12 Dec 2001 09:38:59 -0800 Subject: LOST dark green gortex jacket...

If you plan to work in the lab during the week of December 17, please put a red sticker dot on each of your personal items (personal storage bin and any items that might be found outside your bin, such as your tweezers box, wafer boxes, etc.) so that we will know NOT to remove them from the lab. These sticker dots are available at our new wipe-down station in the gowning room. 2. A vacuum sealer has been placed at the wipe-down station (thanks Henry!) Instructions for use are posted just above the sealer and poly vacuum sealing bags are available just below. There is also plastic crepe tape for sealing the edges of wafer boxes. We hope these things come in handy for packaging substrates and cassettes. Things are thus far on schedule. Most all the shelving has arrived. And (much to Tony's consternation) 160 storage bins have arrived. Now, to assemble it all... Any help for the cleanup is immensely appreciated (and will be gratefully rewarded!) Finally, many, many thanks to labmembers who have begun cleaning up -- the lab is already looking better! (And after the shutdown it will look BETTER yet!!) Mary -- Mary X.

The BIG Lab cleanup day: Monday December 17. 2. Bunnysuit hanger and personal bin assignments. 3. Group storage space. 4. Lab cleanup week, tentative schedule. __________________________________ Longly (in more detail): 1. Please remove your personal items from the lab by Monday, December 17 (sorry, yet another reminder -- but I'm still getting emails and phone calls asking about this...) If you plan to work in the lab during this week, use the red stickers to label your belongings (available in the gowning room.) 2. Labmembers with significant activity in the lab over the past three months will automatically be assigned gown/hanger numbers and bins for personal storage (the wonders of the Coral database!) The list will be posted outside the gowning room on January 2. If you're on this list, you'll be emailed before then. If you don't have an assignment, don't worry -- there should be plenty of bins to go around. Please visit Lourdes, Ciara, or me, on Jan. 2 or anytime thereafter. 3. There are a limited number of larger storage units which will be made available. We'd like to try to allocate these in as fair a manner as possible -- and (unless anyone can suggest better criteria) lab usage and shared usage would seem to be the best. So, our plan is to give preference to groups with multiple capped users, and individuals who routinely cap on multiple accounts. Right now, we are going through the database to extract groups of people who use the same account. However, some research groups have multiple accounts, yet share labware or other lab tools (particularly true for university groups.) If you are in a research group with multiple accounts, and would like a group storage bin, please email a list of labmembers in your group, and we'll make a list of groups (it would be especially nice if each group could just email me once...) 4. Here is the timeline for lab cleanup week. Monday, 12/17: Staff and VOLUNTEERS (!!) will begin removing un-stickered items from the lab. These will be placed in the CAD room, and stored until February. Tuesday/Wednesday: Staff and VOLUNTEERS will install and reorganize shelving. Wednesday-Friday: Staff and VOLUNTEERS will bring in and install personal bins. (Right now, nearly all the shelving is here. Half of the bins are here -- the other half are planned to arrive in the first/second week of January.) VOLUNTEERS will be amply rewarded with holiday goodies and first choice of bins. Did I say that we welcome VOLUNTEERS to come and help? Thanks to all for starting in on the cleanup (doesn't the lab look better already? And it will look better yet!) Mary -- Mary X.

C'mon, this is about as easy as it gets: physically put your container on a shelf, turn around and sit down at a computer, and send me a 6 line email (send the email to Lourdes starting Tues). That's it. If you don't send me email, I'm putting your container on the back shelves (there are several there now) and if the CAD room fills up, your containers will be excluded. Fill the shelves from Front to Back, Top to Bottom. I may rearrange your container as I put on the stickers. Once your container has a sticker, don't rearrange it. Also, please do not put loose wafer boxes on these shelves. You need a container. Remember, all you need is "CAD Room Storage" in the subject and the 6 lines in the body of the email. Keep these 6 lines together and don't write stuff like "login=djones", I'm cutting and pasting this so improperly formatted info is a pain. Thanks, Randy True Again, here are examples of the body: gyama Gary Yama Robert Bosch Corp.
