Survey Feedback
A special thank-you to all users who have provided feedback on the surveys we recently implemented. These surveys are proving to be extremely valuable to help us improve the operations and engineering here at Birck. We plan to regularly
answer a subset of the inquiries and suggestions in the Friday newsletter.
Nikon Microscope Calibrations:
Bill Rowe and Mike Courtney checked the calibrations on the Nikon microscopes this week. In the programs they have labeled the calibrations 5x Calib 2/21/14, 10x Calib 2/21/14, etc. They have verified the calibrations for each lens on
each system, and they will check calibrations each Monday and record the results. If a lens needs recalibration they will then change the calibration data in the log they’re keeping. Also, the Nomarski filters are all located at the microscopes. Please
be careful with the Nomarski filters and make sure you store them in the plastic box when not in use.
Resist Thickness Control:
Mike posted the spin speed curves for AZ 1518 and AZ 9260 in the spinner solvent hoods.
Aligner Optics:
We’re obtaining quotes to upgrade the optics and tune-up the MJB aligners. One consideration is to eliminate the split field on the MJB3_1 . . . we would certainly like input from
the user group on this idea.
Thanks again for the feedback, keep the suggestions coming.
