It's me Again Bryan8 months ago

@lukasas79 Vacuum chamber ?

Lukas Miseikis8 months ago

@fdotinc Exactly! UHV, can go down to 10^-6 mbar in a few minutes! Gonna do some crazy EUV lithography tech with this babe 🔥

It's me Again Bryan8 months ago

@fdotinc Oh cool. I do have some understanding on vacuum systems. Pumps,gauges,fittings. I'm assuming there's a turbo molecular pump involved to reach those levels. Euv lithography, I'm fairly ignorant about other than it's simple description. Cool stuff !

Lukas Miseikis8 months ago

@fdotinc Exactly all of that you are mentioning. It has highly over specced turbo pump so that you keep “clean” vacuum while depositing coatings. Well I focus on filters for EUV light so you end up with crisp images of the transistor arrays when you are making microchips.

Got to learn of this program very late. We are currently building a participation-driven coordination platform that enables communities and organizations to run fair, transparent campaigns where influence is earned through contribution and reputation, not money or hype.

✦ Visharad ✦9 months ago

Quick Question! If someone gets accepted to Artifact. Then is Artifact paid? So like for travel, stay and the program for going to Fort Mason, is it paid?
