Did you end up ordering any of that quartz?
<B0101>
yup... but it has not arrived
<B0101>
yet
<azonenberg>
Lol
<azonenberg>
Shipping... the bane of every experimenter
<B0101>
my preferred shipping option: portals
<azonenberg>
Lol
<azonenberg>
i wish
<B0101>
well, it it exists, it would be the fastest way to buy stuff
<azonenberg>
Indeed
<azonenberg>
*want*
<B0101>
if it ever exists... we will have a few issues...
<azonenberg>
lol
<azonenberg>
Probably
<B0101>
if thieves get their hands on one... shoot portal in to victims house
<azonenberg>
You'd have to have an open window
<B0101>
yup
<azonenberg>
otherwise the portal just appears on a window
<B0101>
but still... there may be one way to prevent this...
<B0101>
how aperture does it: make it as expensive as hell that no one can afford it
<azonenberg>
lol
<B0101>
another way: use big sized portal generators on both the sender and the receiver's end
<B0101>
and then lock the system with a password
<B0101>
with very strong encryption
<B0101>
as for the quartz glass... it can wait. we all need to have a bit of patience sometimes. (though it will be hard)
<B0101>
azonenberg: have you ever though about making your own photoresist?
<B0101>
*thought
<azonenberg>
No, i dont have the o-chem background to try synthesizing DNQ
<B0101>
well, i might be on to something...
<azonenberg>
ooh
<azonenberg>
do tell
<azonenberg>
DNQ or another photoactive compound?
<B0101>
i have been doing experiments on AgCl... It seems like i might be able to make a developer that removes Ag remains after the exposure of a certain area of light without touching the AgCl
<azonenberg>
interesting
<azonenberg>
The problem is that its metal based
<azonenberg>
not sure if it'd be CMOS compatible
<azonenberg>
you could probably use it for MEMS though
<B0101>
ouch... i forgot
<B0101>
exposure might need to be done in a hood
<B0101>
AgCl when exposed to light breaks into Ag and Cl
<azonenberg>
Oh joy
<azonenberg>
worse yet
<azonenberg>
it'll corrode your exposure system
<azonenberg>
i'm sticking with DNQ-novolac
<B0101>
ok... maybe i'll have to try something else...

hi azonenberg
<azonenberg>
hi
<azonenberg>
Any luck on the homebrew resist?
kristianpaul has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds]
<B0101>
nope...
<B0101>
i wasn't able to get a proper image (some parts of the resist do not work)
<azonenberg>
i see
<azonenberg>
Why are you trying this - do you not have a source for regular resist?
<B0101>
i know where to get regular resist, but i am trying this for people who may not have such access to these chemicals
<azonenberg>
I see
<azonenberg>
Do you think you could synthesize a DNQ-novolac resist?
<azonenberg>
i dont know anything about the chemistry behind that
<B0101>
i will be doing research on them tomorrow.
<B0101>
now god knows how long i've been here in the lab
<B0101>
well, i think i might have some old patents for DNQ-novolac photoresists. I will try to find them

azonenberg: fact: AgCl is able to cure mercury poisoning
<azonenberg>
Lol, you do that
<azonenberg>
i'm writing FPGA code now
<azonenberg>
and wondering when i'll be able to find time to finish designing my rev2 spin coater
<soul-d>
from coffee to mercury poisoning mmm "this new silvery coffeemilk looks posh ? "
<azonenberg>
lol
* B0101
does know what to do except laugh at previous comment
<soul-d>
finally nice weather arriving here
<soul-d>
wich means hibernation is over and should be able to spend some energy again
* azonenberg
didnt know geeks hibernated
<azonenberg>
i thought they just crawled deep into their caves

nah lost to much weight again so winters are terrible anything below 10C for that matter
