  * Si
  * SiO2
  * glass/quartz


==== MANUAL ====

  * Load samples on the sample tray
  * Start the vacuum pump while holding the door, make sure black valve is pointing down
  * Pump down to <100mTorr
  * Set black valve to the needle valve
    * if needle valve is open the pressure should go to previous setpoint (check the logbook)
    * or change the setpoint
  * Wait for pressure to stabilize
  * set RF (low, mid or high)
  * When plasma ignites start your timer
  * Turn off RF when timer finishes
  * Close black valve (valve pointing down)
  * Pump down to <100mTorr to make sure etch products are removed from the chamber
  * Stop the vacuum pump
  * Turn black valve to the right to vent
    * vent slowly to avoid samples flying around in the chamber
  * Close black valve (valve pointing down) 
  * close the door
