System Bravo

System Bravo

System Bravo is the LASE groups Dilute Nitrides and erbium-based compounds machine. Current projects include the mid-IR laser, the Tunnel Junction Process Flow, and ErAs films.

System Bravo: The system on the left is Bravo, System Echo is connected in vacuum on the right.

Note: Only the first (low temperature) set of PID values can be read or written through AMBER. If gain scheduling is enabled, the second (high temperature) set of PID values must be read and written directly from the Eurotherm.

Updates: 220301: Adjusted Sb cracker from PID 54,17,2 to PID 200,75,0. Original wiki values say 250,70,5
