Re: Jack hammering on Via Pueblo ....

While the vibration may be visible on the SEM imaging section of the
Raith during normal SEM operations, and all of our other SEM's images
as well, it should not be evident during any Ebeam Lithography writes
due to the very short dwell times when the system unblanks and is
actually performing an exposure operation.

If anyone observes any artifact that could be attributed to these
vibrations, please send me an SEM image and report and claim a free
lunch from me!

Thank you,

James Conway
