Looking ahead: Phase 4 tool installations

MIT.nano's phase 4 tool install is starting and will run through spring into early summer!

We will communicate schedules as they become clear, but we expect no impact on the existing usage/operations of the lab. Be prepared to see new tools populate the space and construction activity inside the cleanroom chases. Almost all work will take place in the first floor cleanroom.

Fab.nano will be closed to regular users starting Wednesday 11/22 at 4pm, through the Thanksgiving Day holiday weekend.
