Subject: 1st Raith User Meeting in USA
Hi Yuan,
There are plans for the first Raith User Meeting to be held in the USA.
These meetings are an annual event at the factory in Germany, but now we
will be holding meetings like this in the USA. It is scheduled for Mon-Tue
September 29-30 at Stanford University. PLEASE pass this information to the
other users of the system at Harvard. I know this is rather short notice so
we will need to know rather soon what is the interest in attending. Below
are a rough idea of some of the talks that are already planned. If anyone
would like to attend, or even to give a brief talk of their work, please
contact me right away. (Talks will be ~15 minutes with 5 minutes after for
discussion/questions.)
* Curved Features with Single Pixel Lines.
* Displacement-sensitive photonic crystal structures based on guided
resonance in photonic crystal slabs.
* AlGaAs waveguides and micro-cavities for non-linear optics.
* Pattern Transfer of Metallic Thin Film Nanostructures by Water-Soluble
Polymer Templates.
* Electron Beam Lithography, a critical enabler towards the integration of
Photonic Device Systems.
* SU-8 as an ebeam resist, applications in gray-scale lithography.
Also, concerning the comment about low memory on mark recognition. I think
maybe the user was using the Automatic procedure for Align Write Field? Here
you specify the size of the scan region and also the number of pixels the
image will have. The Manual procedure must be done first (several times)
for course alignment. Start with a large scan size and repeat the Manual
procedure until the scan size is ~ 5 microns or less, then switch over to
the Automatic mode. A "no. of pixels" value of 512 should be sufficient.
Joe.
