Previous Day

Setup: DIB1/3/4 → 3.2 MHz filters 3/1/2 → cable 3/1/2 →gender changer 3/1/2 → HVConn 1/3/2 → HV 1/2 → DCRC55/DCRC33
1215 Fill LN2 cold trap full
1220 Tower/MC/Coldplate = 32.7/30.4/193 mK, Still = 1.30 K / 0.100 mbar, G1/G2 = 211/198 mbar, 1K Pot = 1.669 K / 20.0 mbar. Main Bath = 29.2% (predicted level: 33.1%)
1233 Start Lhe transfer (MB = 28.9%)
1250 HV = 22.75 V, Vtest = 0.95 mV → Vdetector = 22.37 V
Leakage is low again, only 0.04 nS
1315 End Lhe transfer (MB = 92.7%)
1325 Finish IbIs on DCRC2pD/Side2pF. Looks very close to previous IbIs.
1325 Dial HV down to zero and short leads.
1330 Start 30 minute bake with DCRCs 1&2
1435 Dial HV up to 120 V
1445 Dial HV down to 106 V, targeting Vdetector of 100 V
1500 Check the falloff currents on all channels: 123.4/134/122.4/-112.6/-146.5/-143.8. Compare with last IbIs results: 124/134.9/122.7/-112.8/-146.45/-143.4. Most are a bit lower now indicating some increased parasitic power. Can use this to adjust the Ib*pf values.
1515 HV = 103.9 V, Vtest = 9.79 mV → Vdetector = 99.98 V (leakage 0.1 nS)
1516 Start 18 1-hour data series (start #6726) of 1-sided 100V data with Frontend Gain = (15/15/5)/(5/4/4), OG = 4/2, QET biases set with the Ib*pf=30 values in table from May 24, with 1000 beginning randoms, no flashing, and a 24 ADC bin threshold trigger on DCRC1 pA (Side1 pE).
1530 HV = 103.9 V, Vtest = 9.81 mV → Vdetector = 99.98 V. Seems to be oscillating a bit.
1530 Abort series because there's no data after the second dump, DCRC1pA must have railed
1535 Relock DCRC1pA and DCRC2pB and DCRC2pC
1539 Start 18 1-hour data series (start #6726) of 1-sided 100V data with Frontend Gain = (15/15/5)/(5/4/4), OG = 4/2, QET biases set with the Ib*pf=30 values in table from May 24, with 1000 beginning randoms, no flashing, and a 24 ADC bin threshold trigger on DCRC1 pA (Side1 pE).
1543 HV = 103.9 V, Vtest = 10.14 mV → Vdetector = 99.84 V.
