The Raith e-line is.....having load lock issues. We'll update this announcement when it's back online.
Heidelberg is back online but do not use 405nm laser until further notice.
The maintenance work in the FabLab is requiring another day to finish so we will again close the lab tomorrow, 7/8/2026. We will still open the lab for after-hour users ~4pm today. Thank you all for your understanding.
Gold deposition rates have increased due to the new prices in the gold market. The rate is now $300/100nm. Be advised, prices will continue to rise over time.
New rates and target limitations are established for AJA ATC Orion 8 Sputtering system. See scheduler reservations for details.
If you run a process that has variable rates (i.e.- ALD, furnace, sputter, etc.), make sure you write in the final dollar amount in the Description of Operation section of your reservation along with the reservation ID number of the original run. Otherwise you will be charged for the full rates.
External Materials If you plan to bring external materials into the lab, please notify the FabLab staff to ensure proper safety protocols and any equipment arrangements can be made. Please submit an External Materials Request form for each material you will bring. This form can be found on the Fablab equipment page.
