Message-ID: <034f01da6be1$a7e86590$f7b930b0$@net> Most industrial gas suppliers are reluctant to go above 5% H2 in N2 as this is the threshold where the mix can become flammable. If the process can tolerate <=5% H2 in N2 then that is a preferred supply option. Now, the same gas suppliers have no problem supplying 100% H2 but then 100% H2 is shipped, stored and used under a set of codes and standards that are specific to the flammability issues with 100% H2.

Do you find a bottle washer to be necessary? We have a bio area with (probably) an autoclave...is that adequate? Not something I've dealt with before. 2. QDR: I have an opportunity to upgrade one hood to have a QDR (acid hood, I'm thinking), but likely can't afford SRD presently. Is it too silly to have people using an N2 gun after the QDR? 3. Blanket exposure tools: any recommendations, are these helpful? We have an old used aligner and a uMLA on order. Doubt we'll be throughput limited. I have another 100 questions too, all the exciting little things like gas cylinder pricing and when I can get away with filtered CDA vs. house N2 vs process (cylinder local) N2, and thoughts on how to set up glassware cleaning station, and recommendations for plastic dishes for HF for 4" wafers...UGIM can't come soon enough!

A few reminders, and two exciting new opportunities to participate: 1. Registration is open (https://mitnano.mit.edu/events/UGIM2024/registration). Early registrations help us plan better, and we offer reduced rates until April 15. 2. Call for papers are still open (https://mitnano.mit.edu/ugim-abstract), deadline is April 15. 3. Sponsorship opportunities for vendors: (https://mitnano.mit.edu/form/vendor-interest-ugim-2024) New this UGIM: Working-Groups We will prototype two working-groups, to explore this concept for future UGIMs. The goal of a working group is (1) to pre-discuss a key topic of broad interest and (2), in doing so, pool in-depth data and information from across many different participant organizations. The resulting group-consensus (or lack thereof) will be presented at UGIM in a 40 min talk, followed by 20 mins of panel discussion. The working group therefore creates a reference point, or even an "industry standard", which lab managers can point towards in their decision making (or when convincing their administration). Working Group #1 - Staffing & Continuity - Led by Mary Tang (Stanford) Abstract: Do you have a succession plan for the critical roles in your organization? Experimental research facilities have a unique set of operational challenges; this brings us together every two years to share experiences, commiserate, and find inspiration. One unique challenge is professional staffing from recruiting and career growth to retention. For UGIM 2024, we propose a working group to frame professional development for technical staff in research fab facilities. We aim to identify key skills and training that would help prepare a recruit or current staffer for a variety of technical or administrative professional roles. With national attention to workforce development, we will also explore opportunities and resources that align with these efforts. Interested in participating? Reach out to Mary at mtang at stanford.edu Working Group #2 - Process Control in Shared Facilities - Led by Brian Thibeault (UCSB) Abstract: The overarching goal of open access fabrication facilities is to provide the systems and expertise to enable success for the science and engineering communities we serve. In order to improve the success rate and outcomes of our users, process controls of various kinds need to be implemented and refined over time. The controls and feedback take various forms including system operating procedures, preventative maintenance, SPC charts, process centering, in-situ measurements, system log file analysis, efficient and high quality issue reporting and remedy, materials restrictions, etc. In our university facilities, we are asked to support a diverse range of materials and processes, using limited sets of equipment that can most often not be dedicated to a restricted set of materials and processes. We are often understaffed and also have to accommodate a wide variety of user skill levels. Improving process controls within this environment in service to our user communities can be very challenging. The process control workgroup will seek to explore these process control practices, effectiveness, and improvements within our greater community in order to help us all better reach our fabrication service goals.

They make custom strap assemblies, I used a Fidlock magnetic release buckle with clip on hooks at the apron end and have not had any issues in over 5 yrs. We can easily swap out old/torn aprons in a couple of minutes. No changing of clasps, hammering grommets ,etc. Cost in ~2019 was about $15/ strap assembly - very reasonable and well worth it in my opinion.

Once I created a batch of the needed straps, they could be swapped to new nitrile aprons as they wore out and lasted a long time.

Our reservation system "talks" to the University's financial system every time a user makes a reservation or enables a tool for usage. If the financial account the user has on file is out of money, expired, etc. the reservation system presents the user with the ability to proceed with using a "suspense code" (I am not sure why I agreed to that name). If the user makes that choice, an email is generated to provide a valid account at the earliest convenience. We have not had any situations where we did not get a valid account number by the time we completed our monthly billing cycle. The bailing mechanism you mentioned would probably be a good way to handle this. I believe that charging some users but not charging others (for whatever reason) runs afoul of the federal service center rules our labs have to adhere to.

If they have no ROH then we ask their home department for an unrestricted department account to cover any future transactions/invoices until the PI's account is back in the positive.? This way the department chair is aware and can deal with it internally when the bill comes due. Our fiscal system does read the account details from the university system similar to other university core facilities so we can monitor if needed. Best Regards, Brent -- Brent P. Gila, PhD.

Bookings made in that facility are then subtracted from this figure as they are created and once it hits zero then no more bookings are possible on that code. Users are assigned access to project codes in the booking system during their account setup, or when they are added to a project. Our admin team work with our finance and RIS departments to administrate this. We currently use The Living Database (Phoenix) as a booking system but will move to PPMS/Stratocore later this year. Our financial integration is separate (but driven from reports generated from the booking system) as a lot of our research projects are not pay as you go, and are instead charged a fixed amount per month regardless of actual facility usage. So the financial spend figure held in our booking system is only protection against budget over runs. Owain.

You are correct, if you operate as a Service Center, you can't waive debt. The first priority is the service center, making sure it balances at the end of the fiscal year. The next priority is to fix this problem and make sure it doesn't happen again. I know, easier said than done. We are fortunate to have access to an unrestricted account -- not everyone has this luxury. But perhaps this is something you can lobby for. Depending on how much the amount owed and how your compliance office works, bad debt might have to be carried over into the next fiscal year (so your rates would need to be increased accordingly), or would need to be reconciled in the current fiscal year (so your fees would have to be retroactively increased accordingly for everyone) -- neither option will lead to happy faculty. If your administration is like mine, someone higher up would rather find a way to cover this debt (with strings attached) and deal with one, rather than a boatload of unhappy faculty. We had a professor who routinely couldn't pay. A well-loved, charming, otherwise highly ethical person who was simply terrible with money. His department said, "everyone knows he has no money. Why did you let him use your facility?" Like we would know and have the ability to say "no?" In the end, we now have an account underwritten by the School of Engineering to cover debt. This allows us to close the fiscal year and buy us time to address the situation. (While we no longer accept his accounts, it doesn't affect his research -- he happily collaborates with other PI's with better financial sense.) A shared facility is like a business in that we need to be customer-service oriented. For compliance reasons, we don't have as many adjustable knobs at our disposal. But if your administration is amenable, there are probably many different ways they can work with you to address these needs while remaining compliant. Mary -- Mary X.
