As MIT approaches phase 2 of the research ramp-up, Fab-12 and Fab-39 will be returning to the full pre-COVID schedule of operation starting on Monday, July 27, 2020.
As we enter week 5 of the MIT.nano ramp-up, our technical team is evaluating how the new gowning procedures have been working out, and what we can do to improve them.
The Semilab field service team will be coming to campus next week to install, qualify, and train the MIT.nano staff on the new Semilab SE-2000 spectroscopic ellipsometer. MIT.nano users are invited to provide sample films that we can model and fit into our library while the Semilab service engineer is onsite.
The next MIT.nano user meeting will be Wednesday July 22. Agenda items include tool specific timelines, updates on new installations, and an open forum for discussion on how things are going since MIT.nano reopened last month.
The Fourth of July holiday, which falls on a Saturday, will be observed by MIT this Friday 7/3 and also Monday 7/6. Read more about building access and hours in this post.
This MIT.nano facilities update provides information on 24-hour fab access, safety reminders, trainings, building access, and an upcoming Fab-39 electrical shutdown.
This update contains helpful pointers on our tentative timeline and next steps for 24-hour users, hands-on tool trainings, new users, and Fab 12 wet benches and lithography.
New procedures are now in place to help keep everyone safe and to ensure gowns are available. All users must follow these steps for booking gowning area space and indicating locker usage.
