Previous Day

Setup: DIB1/3/4 → SL 27/19/20 → 3.2 MHz filters → cables 2,1,3 → HV board inputs 1,3,2 → HV board outputs 1,2 → DCRC55(1)/50(3). DCRC4 → HV power supply.
1920 Tower/MC/Coldplate = 21.6/25.5/147 mK, Still = 1.2 K / 0.100 mbar, G1/G2 = 214/177 mbar, 1K Pot = 1.63 K / 28 mbar, MB = 60.5%
circulation pressures, Coldplate, and maybe Still temp all unusually low
1925 Fill LN2 cold trap bath
1925 Reverse HV bias polarity. We'll try some data at negative HV
1930 Start sequence of 12 30-minute background data series at HV = -70V, Driver Gains = 2x, QET biases = 480/360/440/480/380/490 uA, Front-End Gains = 10/5 on DCRC1/3, 1000 initial randoms, trigger on DCRC1pA threshold = 8, flashing then waiting 30min after each series, using modified triggerfe, using sequencer script DataLoop_70V_30min_groundflash_30min
1941 The first data sequence has started
HV = -69.75 V, V_leak = -3.50 V. That's a bit higher leakage at this polarity, at least at this early point after the prebias.
1945 Phonon baselines look OK.
1955 HV = -69.75 V, V_leak = -3.29 V.
