All BNC Users - The preventive maintenance shutdown of the Birck Nanotechnology Facility has been completed successfully. The cleanroom and laboratories are now open for operation. Some equipment is still shut down for maintenance, or is in the process of being started back up. Please check iLabs for individual equipment status. Thank you for your patience and understanding during this set of important preventive-maintenance and upgrade procedures.

We had 3 critical upgrades during this shutdown and one of them was the replacement of the building wide Uninterruptable Power System (UPS) which had some setbacks that will require us to extend the shutdown over the weekend into next Monday or Tuesday. We will send out a notice once the work is completed and the buildings systems are stabilized. This means that the planned building shutdown scheduled for October 30th to November 1 will not happen until after the Thanksgiving break. Thank you for your patience during these critical upgrades.
