Hi Everyone,
Thanks for all the input. I have plenty to think about to decide which makes sense for us.
Thanks,
Long

Heho,
In GNuLab, users log their deposition thickness (including pre-sputtering). They get charged by the Angstrom. I recalculate the price every time a new target is installed.
Price/A=(Price of new target-reclaimed value old target) / (#Angstroms that came out of the old target).
Hope this helps,
Stay healthy,

At UHNF, each user owns their own sputtering target. We are currently considering a shared model for expensive targets like Au, Pt, etc. Does anyone have a reasonable way to estimate material usage vs something we can track so that we can charge fairly? What approaches do y’all take to manage how expensive material is shared?
