Message-ID: <4B18024A.4090409@stanford.edu> James and Raith community: Earlier this morning, I believe, a bearing failed in the air handler that provides clean, tempered air in the Raith room. The bearing replacement is under way and should be completed by about 12:30. However, until that is operational, the room will likely be dirtier than normal and, more importantly, may experience somewhat wider than normal temperature fluctuations. I don't know if we have an accurate and easily visible temperature monitor in that room, but folks should be on the lookout for temperature-induced problems. While we hope that this will not become a serious problem, anyone doing very high resolution work, in particular, may wish to defer their write until things have been properly repaired and stabilized.

Message-ID: <4B183A76.8090706@stanford.edu> James and Raith community: FacOps has completed the emergency replacement of the bearings in the air handling unit in the Raith room. Temperature, humidity, and air control should be back to normal. Also the smoke detectors and halon fire suppression system (that had to be disabled during this repair) have been returned to normal service. Let me know if you see any further problems.

User are requested to allow 30 minutes for the bottle to warm to room temperature before opening it and to NEVER return decanted solutions back to the source bottle. As this material is very expensive please be frugal with your usage. Once applied the material it is very stable and should last well for years as a thin film on your wafers as long as they are not exposed to a condensing environment or temperatures above 250 degrees C. ALWAYS be conscientious and promptly return the bottle to the refrigerator after decanting your solution. The material needs to be stored cool or it will quickly hydrolyze.

December 16, 2009. Only SNF maintenance personnel and RAITH USA Inc. Field service people will be allowed into the clean room after 7 AM tomorrow. (I.E., No User access whatsoever after 7 AM WED. December 16, 2009) Users must remove all Engineering materials, supplies, notebooks, substrates and all over samples from the Ebeam Lab pass through, all cabinets, and drawers before the shutdown begins. All materials remaining in the lab will be cleaned up and may be discarded without fanfare or further notice. (Happy to receive donations of Fused Silica (Quartz) and III/VI material substrates of any kind or size to aid in my work!) Wednesday through Friday Noon this week: RAITH Field Service and I will be performing a number of test and preventative maintenance routines to the RAITH 150 system including a full column rebuild with new aperture plate, anode plate, aperture liner tube, HV contact Pin, and FE-GUN Tip replacement. Starting Friday we will initiate a series of two 200 hour bake outs of the column to reduce contamination levels in the column resulting from the PM. This effort is in order to get the Gun section into optimal Vacuum conditions for Startup in January. Startup Plan for the New Year: Monday January 4, 2010 10 AM: NO access today to the lab, we are still in shutdown and all access to this lab is restricted to SNF maintenance personnel and RAITH Field Service only. Tuesday January 5, 2010 at 7 AM: SNF Clean room reopens for Users Ebeam Lab is under restricted access for _Users of the sem4160 only_ through 3 PM while equipment qualifications are being conducted. NO other Users or access to the Ebeam lab please. The RAITH 150 system will be qualified for operations and resolution by JWC and RAITH Field service. There are a lot of action items to be completed over two days. This is the full qualification template and we request that no one interrupt our work during this time. Please see me during my Office Hours from 9 - 10 AM at Allen 31 only! Wednesday January 6, 2010: 10 AM to 5 PM: RAITH qualification and measurements of the results will be conducted and performance will be evaluated. Final beam and column linear amplifier alignments will be performed. We likely will run additional exposure and sub-system test to ensure we meet factory specifications for the tool. Tentatively from 5 PM until 3 PM the following day: _ONLY RAITH Champions_ will be permitted to access the RAITH 150 system. We desire reports of your results to aid in our evaluation. Thursday January 7, 2010: All Users are welcome to return to normal operations in the Ebeam Lab and all equipment is available for all Qualified Users. *A note about EBEAM, our Hitachi HL-700-F exposure system:* We continue to experience problems with TCP/ICP connectivity, I/O queuing issues between the Data translation and Ebeam memory and write buffers, along with other significant hardware problems we believe is due to the older VAX hardware or firmware used on this system. The system is currently down and not available for Users at this time. In the second week of the year we will return to this task and make a effort to bring this system back up and on line for Users in late January. Users and groups still interested in working on this tool during 2010 are encouraged to send me a brief email of your interest in working on this tool to motivate and support us in our efforts to restore this tool to operation. Should there not be any interest in using this tool in the future by Stanford Users; we will begin discussions towards decommissioning this tool in Early 2010. Thank you for your ongoing support through 2009! To you and your families, have a wonderful and safe Holiday Season and a joyous New Year! Happy Holidays to Everyone, James Conway Ted Berg and all the SNF Staff. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
