| Owen Hall, OSU campus. | [[http://research.engr.oregonstate.edu/masc/|MASC]] is an OSU Center in Owen that hosts shared facilities. It is maintained by thw School of EECS. |

| Staffed by Chris Tasker. Chris' task to oversee the cleanroom is Herculean; he shoulders incredible responsibilities cheerfully and professionally, and with very little staff support. You should obey every instruction or suggestion and do whatever he asks by yesterday, if not sooner. You should volunteer to help without being asked. If you ever cause Chris intentional inconvenience or you behave in an unsafe or irresponsible manner in the cleanroom, you will be asked to leave the Tate group. | Co-Director: Prof. John Conley |

| | == Clean Room Sign up sheet == |
| | Thee is a sign up scheet to schedule time on the clean room equipment, but JT doesn't know how to access it. Pritha/Okan should update this section of the wiki. |
| | == Clean Room Wiki == |
| | The [[https://secure.engr.oregonstate.edu/wiki/cleanroom/index.php/Main/HomePage|Clean Room Wiki]] gives information about equipment and procedures //etc//. The clean room wiki was started and doesn't seem to have progressed too far (as of June 2011), but it does have a list of some equipment & procedures. |

| If any researcher that uses the 418 spinners has any questions at all regarding this please contact me. I would be happy to review your process and suggest any modifications necessary. These spinners will continue to work properly for many years if we follow these simple rules. | If any researcher that uses the 418 spinners has any questions at all regarding this please contact me.

| | == Waste disposal == |
| |
| | {{:cleanroom:owen_hall_cleanroom_labs_liquid_waste_policy_feb2011_.pdf|}} |
| |
| | Effective Monday March 21, 2011, ALL WASTE COLLECTION MUST BE CARRIED OUT IN A FUME HOOD. This means we will no longer collect liquid AMD and PR waste in the 5 gallon metal cans. |
| | |
| | Also, ALL WASTE MUST BE SEPARATED BY RESEARCH OR INDUSTRY GROUP (hereafter referred to as work group). For the most part we already do this, but specifically this means no more community collection of liquid AMD and PR waste. KEEP IN MIND we still need to segregate and label waste properly into separate containers for each work group. Our main categories are HF acid, other acid, clean acetone and alcohol (AMD waste), and photoresist processing waste (PR waste), with a smaller amount of bases. ONLY clean water down the sinks. The sink drains are not built to handle solvent or acid waste. I had to replace the drain in one of the fume hood sinks recently and it was completely compromised. Not to mention the Willamette River. |
| | |
| | The reason for collecting waste in a fume hood is to eliminate exposure to fumes. The reason to separate by work group is to enhance communication and self policing of proper waste segregation. |
| | |
| | I have a limited number of one gallon plastic jugs I can dispense to get this process started. After that work groups will be responsible for supplying their own waste containers. Remember, minimally waste containers need to be of the same material and thickness as the container the chemical came in. Avoid glass whenever possible. |
| | |
| | The Tate group has a 1 gallon photoresist waste jug in Owen 418 (June 2012). |
