INRF & BiON Users,
As a friendly reminder to everyone, it is important for safety purposes for users to accurately log into and out of the tools and lab. In the event of an emergency this information could become very critical quickly. Please continue to do so. Also as a reminder, this information is tied to the billing charges and the system is not able to reverse the charges so it is also critical to prevent unnecessary charges to users accounts.
Thanks,
STAFF
INRF & BiON Users,
Due to the Thanksgiving holiday, the INRF and BiON will not be staffed this Thursday or Friday Nov 22 & Nov 23. These days, and after 2pm today, the wet etch rooms will be locked as per usual for non-staffed hours (outside of business hours & weekends).
Happy Holidays,
STAFF
INRF & BiON Users,
Staff needs to clean up all expired chemicals in the INRF and BiON. We noticed there is a lot of SU-8 expired in particular. Please contact Richard at rschang@uci.edu before next Wednesday November 7, 2018 5pm if you have any questions, comments, concerns, or have a particular need to keep anything. Otherwise staff will dispose all expired chemicals.
STAFF
E-beam 1 and Ion Mill Users,
These tools need a regen very soon, staff plans to take these two tools offline for 3 days starting Monday to take care of the regens. They may take less time but a safe budget is 3 days. If anybody has a need we can work around your process time; please contact staff ASAP if this is the case.
Thanks,

INRF Wet Etch RM 2325 Users,
The INRF Wet Etch RM 2325 facility air balance is out of tolerance. The room is currently overly positive, and since this is a safety issue we are keeping the room locked and offline until the issue can be resolved.
