Birck Nanotechnology Center PM Closure Notice

The Birck Nanotechnology Center will be undergoing a semi-annual preventive maintenance and service shutdown May 3 through May 7, 2021.  Air handling systems, exhaust systems, toxic gas delivery, and monitoring systems will be down beginning at 7 a.m. Monday, May 3 through 4 p.m. Friday, May 7.  The BNC staff will be performing appropriate preventive maintenance on the process equipment at this time as well.

All CLEANROOM research work will be suspended until the maintenance activities are completed and all systems are returned to normal.  Only authorized personnel will be allowed to enter the cleanroom during this time period.

In addition, the laboratory areas will also be affected by this systems maintenance.  As such, all LABORATORY activities that involve exhausted hoods, vacuum systems, and/or toxic gas systems will be down beginning 7 a.m. Monday, May 3 through 4 p.m. Friday, May 7.  However, work that involves taking standard electrical measurements may be carried out in the LABS provided that fluctuating air temperature and humidity do not affect the readings.  No chemical work will be allowed during this period.

It is anticipated that the building and process tool maintenance will be completed by the end of the day on Friday, May 7.  Please check iLabs for equipment status and availability.
For long term research planning please refer the following future dates for our future preventive maintenance shutdowns.

Week of  May 3, 2021                     Week of  Oct 18, 2021
Week of  May 2, 2022                     Week of  Oct 17, 2022

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding during these important preventive maintenance shutdowns.  Please contact me if you need more detailed information.
