Previous Day

  • Lab in-personnel: Matt, Himangshu
Status Run 75 in progress
Setup Tower Faces 5/3/2 → Cables 2/1/3 → nothing/diverter_board/nothing → DCRC55(1)/DCRC50(3)/DCRCx(4)
1110 Goldman/Tower/MC/Coldplate = 53.4/154/37.1/222 mK, Still = 1.7 K / 0.130 mbar / 0 mW, G1/G2= 171/159 mbar, 1K Pot = 1.64 K / 26±2 mbar. MB = 25.6%
Coldplate and Still thermometers are still reading high, still thermometer reading not very stable.
1115 Fill LN2 cold trap bath.
1130 Start MIDAS series with all 3 DCRCs enabled, see pulses in all the working channels (all but DCRC3pD).
1135 Restart DAQ programs with only DCRC1 enabled.
1140 Adjust DCRC1pB driver offset so that IbIs peak (QET bias around 350) is near top of output scale.
1146 Start automated IbIs on DCRC1pB. 500 to 200 uA step -2.
Make new directory in /byseries and move the QB_scan files from /livedata to the new directory.
1225 Adjust DCRC1pC driver offset so that IbIs peak (QET bias around 335) is near top of output scale.
1235 Write new sequence IbIs_loop_Generic rather than a different sequence for every channel. Need to reset DCRC*p* and QETbias (ua)[*] (4 places), and initial bias, loop n, and final reset bias.
1239 Start automated IbIs on DCRC1pC. 500 to 200 uA step -2.
1310 Make new directory in /byseries and move the QB_scan files from /livedata to the new directory.
1315 Adjust DCRC1pD driver offset so that IbIs peak (QET bias around 180) is near top of output scale.
1321 Start automated IbIs on DCRC1pD. 350 to 50 uA step -2.
1425 Make new directory in /byseries and move the QB_scan files from /livedata to the new directory.
1440 Restart DAQ programs with only DCRC3 enabled.
1440 Adjust DCRC3pA driver offset so that IbIs peak (QET bias around 160) is near top of output scale.
1447 Start automated IbIs on DCRC3pA. 350 to 50 uA step -2.
1523 Begin LHe transfer @ MB = 18.5%
1535 Make new directory in /byseries and move the QB_scan files from /livedata to the new directory.
This IbIs railed high - need to redo. Maybe the SQUID lost lock.
1551 End LHe transfer @ MB = 93.7%
