00:02 <azonenberg> sounds like IR something

00:24 <Sync> yeah

00:24 <Sync> everything was in a vacuum vessel

00:24 <Sync> with a HV valve and pirani gauge

00:30 <azonenberg> Hmm, definitely smells IR

00:30 <azonenberg> did it have labels?

00:32 <soul-d> mmm

00:32 <soul-d> some google person on "holiday" or somtjhing to north korea

00:33 <Sync> it says spectra physics

00:34 <Sync> the in and out windows are also at an angle

00:34 <azonenberg> well, that sure implies optical

00:34 <azonenberg> soul-d: ?

00:37 <soul-d> trying to find english source but sais eric shmidth fellah is gonna go their with som conspicous reasons :P like "humanirian " " personal "

00:38 <Sync> no shit, all that optic asshattery in there implies optics :P

00:38 <azonenberg> Sync: lol

00:38 <azonenberg> soul-d: hmm...

00:38 <azonenberg> wonder whats up

04:36 <hozer> clear

05:13 <hozer> So what does it actually take to do a 1 micron mask

05:38 <azonenberg> hozer: at that scale you start wanting to look at chrome-on-glass

05:38 <azonenberg> or if you're cheap, projection litho using 10:1 reduction on a 10um mask

05:44 <hozer> so how does the chrome get removed.. laser?

05:57 <hozer> and where can I pick up a used chrome/glass photomask printer

06:26 <nmz787> hozer: no it gets etched off with an focused ion or electron beam

06:26 <nmz787> you could probably make something crude with an old CRT tv monitor

06:27 <nmz787> but that would be hard to do

06:40 <hozer> I'm thinking pickup up old equipment is the way to go

06:46 <nmz787> depends what you want to do
