New Issues 	
	
	
	

	
None over the Weekend 
	

	

	

	

	
Old Issues- Ongoing 	
	
	

	
ASML Stepper- Purge hood removed again due to contamination issue and damage to 
	
wafer table optics. The following process restrictions are in effect: 1- No thick resist processing 
	
(3.0 microns and above) until further notice. Timing of re-installation still not decided yet, 
	
and is dependent on ASML's available resources 
	
YES Oven- Intermittent pump down problem. Fails to achieve setpoint. Performed a leakcheck 
	
on 9/28). Identified a leak in the chamber( rear/lower right corner). Investigating options. 
	
KSCoat -Problem: Robot wafer pickup at load station. OK to process 4" wafers. Still need 
	
to check 3", 5" 6" and 8" wafer sized and re-teach as needed. 
	

	
KS Coat- Problem: User "lindaohara" reports a coolant water flow problem. Investigated 
	
and found the water pump to be bad. Motor is OK. Just head unit needs replacement. Advised 
	
ASML with pricing and vendor information. 
	

	
	
	
	
	

	
Resolved Issues 	
	
	

	
Karl Suss Align2- Problem: User "lindaw" reports a lamp power supply problem. Replaced and 
	
set up new UV lamp. 
	
EVG Spraycoate r- Problem: User "jackson" reports an interlock error preventing the tool to run. 
	
The clean-counter was at 0. Reset back to 200 wafers. 	
	

	
Nanospec 2- Problem: User "ludwig" reports the screen is frozen. System reset and checked out.
