Our lab renovation will be finished soon, finally:)
We received our Bluefors dilution fridge back in March, although the installation has been postponed due to the covid pandemic. We are now waiting to move into the new lab first, and then attempt to install the fridge ourselves with remote assistance from Bluefors, FUN!
We also recently received our new e-beam evaporator from Plassys dedicated to our superconducting Josephson junction fabrication. The Plassys evaporator will be housed in the cleanroom at Purdue’s Birck Nanotechnology Center. We will try installing the system with the help of our Birck engineers and remote assistance from Plassys. Doubly FUN…
Our team has been mostly working from home since March. We have implemented a detailed Covid SOP for returning to research labs. We are now slowly ramping up our experimental efforts, following university and CDC guidelines. Fingers crossed for a safe and productive fall semester for everyone!
