The new spin coater just went live at MIT.nano. In this photo we’re setting up to film our first training videos, simultaneously from inside the hood and outside.

This update contains information about new user orientations, as well as training slots for wet chemical processing and emergency preparedness.

The new rapid thermal annealing (RTA) system cleared customs and has been delivered to MIT.nano.

The next MIT.nano user meeting will be Wednesday, August 26 from 2-3pm. Check your email for Zoom information.

Several MIT.nano users have requested the tool status for coaters and wet benches, as well as when they will go online. Most are available now! Details on these tools can be found in this update.

MIT.nano staff have started posting daily humidity values as comments on the TRL coater as of August 1. More detailed data-logger results are being sent via email that help highlight recent fluctuations.

This update contains information about the general purpose coater for both manual pieces and wafers, the new HMDS oven, and the Semilab ellipsometer.
