Winter Recess All User Meeting Laser Capture Microdissection - Workshop Announcement 3D3C 2017 Workshop Announcement Construction Notice Winter Recess With the extended break this year between the Christmas and New Year's holidays the university will be closed for 11 days in a row, beginning Friday, December 23rd and concluding Tuesday morning, January 3rd. This represents a challenge for us to maintain some limited research capability while the university is officially closed with no staff members present. Therefore the Birck Nanotechnology Center will implement the following policy for the duration of this time period: 1. No toxic, flammable, or hazardous gases will be available. This includes hydrogen, methane, silane, dichlorosilane, ammonia, nitric oxide, chlorine, KrF. These gases will be shut off at the source and no processes using these gases will be allowed. 2. Cleanroom and laboratory operations will still be available as long as they don't use any hazardous gases. 3. Fume hoods will be open for use but please make sure someone else is nearby if you're going to work alone in the hood. 4. Stocked materials should be especially conserved by all users as no deliveries to the university will occur during this period, and stocking of on-hand materials may occur on a very limited basis. 5. Cleanroom users should continue to re-use their cleanroom gowns and other garments as much as possible since the shipping of used garments to our laundering supplier will be unavailable during this time. 6. No staff will be working normal hours but some may intermittently stop in for brief walk-throughs and checks. Thank you for your support of this extended period of time for staff, faculty, and students to enjoy time off with family and to refresh.

These workshops, limited to six participants in order to facilitate hands-on training, have been run more than eight times encompassing at least 40 participants from campus. Starting with spring 2017, we plan to run these three workshops once every semester as a series for people to choose based on their needs or enjoy as a complete set. Dates and costs are listed in the table (discount is available for multiple workshops as explained in the last paragraph). [https://gallery.mailchimp.com/b7d6d1ffee56a866e499104cf/images/46495d3f-575…] There is no prerequisite for the first workshop (cell culture basics). For the workshops on 3D cell cultures (basics and microscopic analysis) a prerequisite is either attending the cell culture basics training workshop or prior knowledge of cell culture techniques. A 5% discount will be offered to individuals who register for two workshops and a 10% discount for registration to the three workshops within the semester. Details regarding individual workshops from this year are available at https://nanohub.org/groups/3d3cfacility/training and will also be sent along with deadlines for registration about six weeks before the workshop date.

Lesker Film Quality A user mentioned that films from the Lesker are of bad quality. Dave is working this issue. One indication is that poor adhesion occurs when thick positive photoresist is used, and a curling effect can be seen near the edges of features. We're working with the equipment supplier to make hardware & software adjustments to spread the beam out more across the crucible. This would potentially reduce the temperature at the substrate which would then cause less heat related curling of the underlying photoresist. Please see Dave for updates, and/or for other options that might be available now and in the future. Dear Birck Users and Research Community, With the extended break this year between the Christmas and New Year's holidays the university will be closed for 11 days in a row, beginning Friday, December 23rd and concluding Tuesday morning, January 3rd.

iLab Rollout Activities
by Reger, Ronald K 06 Dec '16

06 Dec '16

All, There have been a few small hurdles today in the iLab rollout, and things haven't progressed as quickly as I had hoped. I have received a number of questions regarding the new iLab system and whether tools have transitioned or not, I understand the confusion and appreciate your patience. After today, only a couple of tools have been officially transitioned over, and we will continue to work toward the full rollout. In the meantime, continue to use Coral until your tools are shutdown in that system (showing a red X with message stating the tool has transitioned).

BNC E-new for the week of Dec. 5th
by Anthrop, Heather L 02 Dec '16

02 Dec '16

All Birck Users, With the Christmas-New Year's holiday coming up please be aware that the University will be officially closed from Dec 23rd through Jan 2nd . Given this 11 day closure staff will not be available. Please make sure in advance that you stock the necessary chemicals and consumables before time. It is also highly recommended that use material prudently to ensure your research is not affected over this period. Your assistance is greatly appreciated, Stephen Birck Safety Officer iLabs Implementation Birck Users: We are pleased to announce that we have completed our implementation of iLab systems and our first set of instruments is prepared to go-live on Monday, December 5th. Recall that iLab Systems is the online scheduling system that is replacing our Coral scheduler and is being deployed here at Birck and at many other research labs across Purdue. We're looking forward to the improved user experience and intuitive interface over our current system. We have so many great tools and users that we couldn't go-live with the entire building in one day, it is too much to manage. So, during the month of December both Coral and iLab systems will operate side by side at Birck. To be clear, no double entry is required, some tools will continue on in Coral for another month, while others will shift entirely to iLab. We will provide a few points of communication to help clear the confusion of which tools are located in which system. The tools that move to iLab will be shut down in Coral, and on the shutdown message we will post information concerning the switch to iLab. We will also post notification at the tools. We have done our best to get all currently qualified users of the equipment transferred into the new iLab system, so your qualifications should be in place and you can seamlessly transition into the new system. However, with so many users and tools I'm sure we have missed a few and made a few mistakes along the way, if you find you do not have access to a tool you have previously been qualified on, please contact the staff and we will get that fixed for you. To determine if your typical workflow will be affected, please review the listing of tools below. Additionally I have provided a link to iLab below as well as a link to a user training video. iLab access https://purdue.ilabsolutions.com Training Video https://mediaspace.itap.purdue.edu/media/iLab+End+User+Training/1_z02xk4t9 Tools moving to iLab on Monday December 5th include: BRK Characterization Core: Cascade PMC200, Cleanroom Probe 1, Jandel Multiheight Probe, Lakeshore Probe Station, Leica Confocal System, MMR Hall Effect Station, MMR Probe, PPMS, MPMS, Olympus brk2261, Polytec Laser Vibrometer, Probe 1, Probe 2, Suss PLV50 Probe Station BRK Electron Microscopy Core: GATAN PIPS II, Nanomill Model 1040, SPI Sputter Coater, FEI Nova 200, Hitachi S4800, Titan 80-300 kV BRK Etch Core: Branson, Panasonic, Plasma Tech, STS AOE, STS ASE, STS ASE2, xef2 BRK Evaporation/Sputtering Core: Airco, CHA, Lesker E-beam, Leybold, Nitride Sputtering, Perkin Elmer 2400, PLD, PVD 1, PVD GLAD, PVD Sputtering Magnetics, PVD Sputtering Dielectrics, Varian Ebeam, Veeco Thermal BRK Furnace Core: Blue M Furnace, Jipelec RTA, Nitric Oxide Anneal, Nitrogen Anneal Furnace, Pyrogenic Oxidation, RTP 610, RTP Minipulse, Tube 01, Tube 02, Tube 03, Tube 04, Tube 05, Tube 06, Tube 07, Tube 08, Tube 09 BRK Lithography Core: Coherent Legend FS, Heidelberg, MA6, MJB3-1, MJB3-2, Nanonex NX-2000, Raith, SB6e bonder, Spinner 1, Spinner 2, Thick Film Photoresist Laminator, VB6 Thank you, Jerry Shepard Birck Nanotechnology Center West Lafayette, IN 47909-2057 Phone: 765-494-3480 Unused Reservations A user commented this week that many times researchers reserve a system in Coral but fail to use their reserved time. This blocks others from using the equipment and can lead to higher usage rates since our machines and instruments are sitting idle more of the time. We ask that users please be courteous to others by either using their reserved time or cancelling their reservation ahead of time when they know they will not be ready for the system. In our multi-user facility this courtesy not only supports more research but helps to maintain our costs at the lowest rates possible. Thank you for your consideration for your fellow users. Fume Hood Clutter, Cleanliness, and Safety A comment was made in the survey this week that many times our fume hoods are found to be cluttered, messy, and sometimes left with open chemical containers and/or depleted chemical bottles. This is not only a citizenship issue but can also be a safety issue. PLEASE be considerate to other users by cleaning up after yourself in the fume hoods, disposing properly of chemical waste and chemical containers, and replenishing chemicals when you use the last of a bottle. We only have a finite amount of hood space for many users, so please share these facilities with courtesy and respect for your fellow researchers.
