Cleanroom Users

Cleanroom Users,

Due to limited space we need to remove unused small resist bottles. Please follow the procedures set below:

Action item:
- Put "S" sticker on your photoresist bottles.
- Label photoresist bottle as attached protocol.
- If you are using the previous user's bottle, please label with your name.
- Keep all the photoresist bottles in spinner hood cabinet or red cabinet between R and S bay. No other place allowed.

We are at a point in the cleanroom solvent storage areas that a large quantity of phot-resist bottles are present. With the addition of new users we are asking everyone to place an "S" sticker on the top of the container if you want to keep the material. Labels will be provided in the cleanroom. Photoresists bottles without the "S" label will be disposed of after October 25th.

Please label your photoresist bottles properly. The label should include the owner's full name, content, and date to start using. For the name, either full name or short name with Purdue ID. Jut initial is not allowed. I am sending the SOP for photoresist bottle label with label maker. Please do not use the stickers for the bottles "ready for disposal".

If you are using the previous users' bottle that already left, please label with your name. Otherwise, we will dispose them.

Please put the photoresist bottles in the cabinets under the spinner hoods or red cabinet between R and S bay. Please do not keep the photoresist bottle in your cleanroom storage bin. Please do not store the photoresist bottles in other cabinets such as the requested chemical cabinets. After the grace period, we will relocated all the photoresist bottles that are sitting in the other cabinets such as yellow cabinets.

EVPRP Above and Beyond Award Nominations

It is time once again to nominate colleagues for the EVPRP Above and Beyond Award, which recognizes employees who have exhibited extraordinary effort and achievement - those people whose outstanding work extends well beyond their regular job responsibilities.  If you are aware of someone who matches this criterion, we encourage you to submit a nomination.

The nomination form and process guidelines are attached; final nominations are due by Friday, November 8th to Nicole Finley (kingman at purdue.edu<mailto:kingman at purdue.edu>).  Awards will be announced at the EVPRP Service Recognition Reception in December.

Thank you for the contributions you have made to our unit and I look forward to your nominations.
