Week+of+Sep+8


 * Sep 8th, Monday**

Today, I first went to the Center and saw the SEM. I read about the Mobile Mini SEM and made the web page about it. I took the pictures as I read along but could not take all the pictures because I could not figure out where some of things are located. But anyway, it was kind of interesting and I think I'm still going to working on the web page about SEM as I find the things that I could not find today. :)

Plus, I found something very frusturating... In order to make this week's link, I just copied the Sep 1's and pasted it and I suddenly see all the logbooks from last week so I deleted it and wrote down today's logbook and I found out that it's all GONE!!!!! What should I do? i might write it down all things again................trying to think what did I write before... :(

Hi Lucy :P Oh Juuuun.................... :) You're missing a 'u' >.<  okay..... my bad? lol are you at quarknet now?

Fortunately, the thing that I freaked out yesterday about blowing my page off was turned out to be nothing. This amazing wikispace had all the things saved so I could get mine back :) (Dr. L let me know) So, I worked on the applications on wiki and checked out the things that might be helpful.

Tomorrow is the day that I go to QNet center. Since I'm actually going to see the SEM operation tomorrow, I read over the mobile SEM packet, just to make sure. Actually, the packet has few pages but when I first read it.... most of the stuff, I could not understand but I feel like I'm getting it (hopefully).

Today, I got to see how mobile mini SEM is working. Okay. I'm going to try to describe what I saw. (Anyway I'm kinda starting it away because my thing is gone, I don't know why) It was pretty interesting. First, we turned the main power switch and then the D.P. Since we turned on the main power switch, the instrument then had power to the rotary pump and evacuation of the column had begun. When we turned the main switch on, the numbers appeared on the rotary pump screen started with 3-digit and eventually decreased into 2-digit. Anyway after we turned the D.P. on we had to wait about 15 mins to warm up the oil to produce the vapor.
