Integrated Nanosystems Research Facility

The HF room in the BION will be closed today as we will be doing maintenance on the Dicing Saw.

Due to the flood in the front office the contractors will be dry-walling and painting all day today.

Tomorrow morning at approximately 8am facilities will be adding a new N2, lab air and vacuum line to the room for the dicing saw. We don’t expect there to be any downtime but just pay attention when working in there to make sure everything is working properly. Ill post again if there are any updates.

The E-Beam 1 is now back up. The Trion and Mark 50 are still down.

INRF Staff

The INRF cleanroom will be closed March 18th – 28th in order to replace the buildings air compressor. As you know, we have been experiencing problems with low pressure and oil in the air lines for years now. This should remedy those issues and open up more possibilities for the cleanroom in the future.

The BION will remain open during this time.

NOTE: All compressed air to the Engineering Gateway West wing building will be shut down during this time. This will effect all 3rd floor labs as well.
