During the loading, the lowest thermocouple received the wrong information; therefore, the bottom part of the furnace became overheated.

The quality of the low-zone wafers is different from the mid-zone and top-zone wafers. For instance, the stoichiometry of SiO2 might change. Even small variations of stoichiometry can result in the same change in optical constants that may affect the model of ellipsometric model and result in SiO2 thickness.

Turn off the heaters of the furnace when the boat is removed. The furnace is big enough to keep the temperature for a long time. Besides, the STABILIZATION step is long enough to compensate for the temperature difference.

Use a mixture of N2 and Ar during LOADING to ensure that all residual air is moved out, even from the bottom zone of the furnace.

Disconnect the thermocouples control during the LOADING if the furnace is turned on.

Start N2 flow just before the LOADING, before the loading of the boat with wafers into the furnace. Turn on the heaters only when the boat is completely loaded into the furnace

Turn off the heaters of the furnace and N2 flow during PRE-LOADING - loading the wafers in the boat

During the PRE-LOADING - loading wafers into the boat, the furnace remains open, resulting in losing N2 gas and electricity. It would be better to cover the bottom of the furnace.

The process is related to microelectronics - microchip manufacturing.

The purpose of the process is to create a SiO2 layer on the surface of a Si wafer.
Equipment: Vertical furnace to heat the wafers in the Q2 atmosphere and perform oxidation on the wafer surface.
Process: The oxidation occurs on the front side and on the back side of the wafer
Requirements: Create a SiO2 thin layer with a certain thickness and low sigma - low standard deviation of the thickness between the wafers and within the wafer

Failure: Wafers from the lower zone have higher thickness and significantly higher within wafer sigma (standard deviation of the thickness within the wafer)

SiO2 THICKNESS MEASUREMENT

Define the more contaminated areas and spend more time/chemical to clean the specific areas

Increase the temperature of the solution to make the process more effective

Principle #15 – Dynamism – change an object from rigid to movable or adaptiveThe idea that is generated is as follows:Replace the constant flow of the chemistry with variable flow, especially in the and of the process, to ensure defects removal from the disc.So, the idea is to change (even make pulses) flow while the cleaning process.

לטבול את הצלחת במים במקום לשטוף אותה בכל פעם

מערכת כיווון אוטמיטת למסוע

The wafer is contaminated not equally. Use special cleaning on the areas that are more contaminated

The general conclusion is to eliminate the system of the air supply and exhaust. Let air enter the chamber and convert exhaust to drain with very little under-pressure. The will stabilize the performance, reduce the cost and make the system more simple.

Principle #16 – Partial or accessive action – do slightly more or slightly lessIf 100 percent of an object is hard to achieve using a given solution method then, by using 'slightly less' or 'slightly more' of the same method, the problem may be considerably easier to solve.A wafer is not contaminated equally: there are some areas with more defects and some areas with fewer amount of defectsThe idea is to use the shower with a graduated flow - the more the defects the higher the flow

Principle #13 – The other way around – Turn the object “upside-down”This is a great tip. Indeed, why the disk is kept “face-up” during the washing process?It would be much better to keep the disc “face down” to improve the removal of the defects from the surface.So, the idea is to keep

Increase the pressure in the chamber

Prevent evaporation of the chemistry from the wafer

To increase the density of the chemistry by temperature reduction

Try to eliminate the wasting. Do we really need this?

Improve the rinsing process to ensure the defects removal

Improve the process to enhance the effectiveness of the cleaning with the chemistry

Wet cleaning is widely used in microchip manufacturing. Single wafer equipment is working as follows. A wafer rotates, and chemistry is poured from a movable nozzle. Water rinsing is performed at the end of the process.
Loading of a new batch of the chemistry resulted in excursion - a strongly increased amount of defects was observed on the wafer after the processing.
The project is dedicated to the failure analysis and creation of innovative solutions.

Wafer cleaning issues in the wet process

Anything related to the cubic measure of space occupied by an object or the space around it.   'Moving' includes any situations where there is any degree of relative motion or mobility between two or more parts related to the problem.  This relative motion may be a few microns or a considerable distance.

Volume of moving object

Big amount of chemistry or water will be on the wafer

Nesting dolls

The Other way around

Dynamism

Partial or excessive action

Loss or waste of energy that does not contribute to any of the useful functions being performed.  Inefficiency.  Can be partial or complete, permanent or temporary.

Loss of energy

Unpredictably high cost of the process due to the usage of big amount of chemistry or water for rinsing

The extent to which a user is able to learn how to operate, operate or control a system or object.  The convenience of use.

Ease of operation

Local quality

Anti-weight

Self-service

Pneumatics or hydraulics

Component: Filter

The time that an object or system takes to perform an action.  The action may take place over a few milliseconds, or over several years or more.  The parameter is different from 'reliability' (Parameter 35) which is connected to the idea of the time to failure of a system – where it is specifically only the time duration aspect that is at issue.  'Moving' includes any situation where there is any degree of relative motion between two or more parts related to the problem.  The relative motion may be a few microns or considerable distances.

Duration of action by a moving object

Because the chemistry contaminates the wafer due to impurities or some other properties

The chemistry is removed from the wafer before it removes the defects

Defects remain on the wafer till the very end of the process.

Because the wet process does not remove the defects

Defects remain on the wafer surface after the wet cleaning process step

Try to eliminate the washing. Do we really need this?

To increase the density of the chemistry by temperature reduction.

Ensure that the chemistry remains on the wafer as long as possible (reduce rotation of the wafer)

Reduce evaporation rate of the chemistry, reduce rotation of the wafer

5+ WHYS Analysis

Increase the temperature of rinsing water

Defects remain on the wafer surface. The wet cleaning process suddenly becomes ineffective.Let's apply the Effective Brainstorming (EBS) tool to generate ideas and prioritize them.

To analyze why the defects remain on the wafer while cleaning with chemistry.The process is as follows:<ul><li>a wafer is kept in the special chuck in 4 points</li><li>chemistry pores from the nozzle on the wafer</li><li>the wafer rotates allows removing the chemistry from the wafer together with the defects</li><li>parameters of the process - chemistry flow, temperature, process time, wafer rotation rate and so on can be adjusted</li></ul>

The potential outbreak of a third world war presents a grave threat to Egypt’s economic stability, trade networks, and public welfare. As a country heavily reliant on imports for food, medicine, and energy, Egypt faces the risk of becoming isolated from global financial systems and supply chains in the event of an international conflict. Such isolation would severely impact businesses and citizens, making it increasingly difficult to access essential goods, medical supplies, and communication networks. Without an alternative economic and trade infrastructure, the country could experience severe inflation, supply shortages, disrupted logistics, and rising public unrest. To mitigate these risks, it is crucial to develop a resilient, self-sustaining digital ecosystem that ensures economic continuity and security during a crisis. Key Challenge Symptoms &amp; Critical VariablesSupply Chain Disruptions Egypt relies on imports for over 60% of its wheat supply, primarily from countries like Russia and Ukraine. A war-related supply chain disruption could lead to severe food shortages.Medicine and medical equipment imports make up 70% of Egypt’s healthcare needs. Any trade restrictions could cripple hospitals and pharmacies.Energy imports, particularly natural gas and petroleum, are essential for electricity generation and transportation. Disruptions in energy supply could lead to blackouts, increased fuel prices, and limited mobility.Economic Collapse Risks The Egyptian pound is already vulnerable to inflation, and further economic isolation could trigger hyperinflation, currency devaluation, and increased national debt.Loss of foreign investments and remittances (which account for a significant portion of Egypt’s GDP) would weaken the financial sector.Businesses dependent on imported raw materials may shut down or reduce operations, increasing unemployment and poverty rates.Digital &amp; Communication Breakdown Egypt’s financial system is highly dependent on SWIFT transactions for international trade and banking. A global conflict could result in sanctions or cyberattacks that block access to these networks.Cybersecurity vulnerabilities in Egypt’s financial and governmental institutions could expose critical infrastructure to hacking and digital sabotage.Over-reliance on foreign technology providers (cloud services, data centers, and internet infrastructure) creates additional risks in case of international service restrictions or cyber warfare.Security &amp; Social Unrest A scarcity of essential goods may result in panic buying, hoarding, and black-market trade, further exacerbating supply shortages.Rising unemployment and economic instability could increase crime rates, riots, and social unrest.A breakdown in law enforcement and emergency response systems could weaken national security.Stakeholder Perspectives &amp; RequirementsCitizens &amp; Families Need access to essential goods, financial security, and reliable emergency communication.Require a secure, alternative financial system to make transactions if traditional banking fails.Small Businesses &amp; Merchants Require alternative trade mechanisms to source and sell products in case of supply chain failures.Need a stable digital transaction system to continue business operations during financial crises.Farmers &amp; Food Suppliers Require government-backed agricultural support to scale local food production and reduce import dependency.Need efficient logistics and distribution channels to prevent wastage and ensure fair distribution.Healthcare Sector Needs a telemedicine platform to provide healthcare services remotely.Requires a medical supply tracking system to ensure efficient allocation and prevent hoarding.Government Authorities Require a national crisis management platform with real-time monitoring and AI-driven analytics to track resource distribution and economic stability.Need alternative trade agreements and economic policies to mitigate isolation risks.Historical Context &amp; Case StudiesEgypt’s Experience During the 1973 War Trade restrictions and war-related disruptions led to rationing, food shortages, and economic instability.The crisis highlighted Egypt’s vulnerability due to import dependence and the necessity for self-sufficiency in essential industries.COVID-19 Supply Chain Disruptions (2020) Global lockdowns disrupted supply chains, causing delays in food, medical, and industrial supplies.The crisis underscored the importance of digital transformation for trade, finance, and communication.Global Economic Sanctions &amp; Financial Isolation Countries like Iran and Venezuela, facing sanctions and global isolation, resorted to barter trade, cryptocurrency, and parallel financial systems.These examples demonstrate that alternative digital economies can sustain financial transactions in times of crisis.Regulatory &amp; Safety ConsiderationsEmergency Economic Regulations The Egyptian government may need to establish price controls, rationing policies, and trade restrictions to prevent exploitation and ensure fair distribution.Regulatory oversight of alternative trade systems (e.g., barter trade or cryptocurrency-based transactions) will be necessary to prevent fraud and instability.Cybersecurity &amp; Data Protection Strengthening national cybersecurity infrastructure to prevent hacking, data leaks, and financial system breaches.Implementing decentralized digital financial systems to ensure secure, offline-capable transactions.Disaster Response &amp; Crisis Management Developing a national emergency response framework to ensure smooth coordination between government agencies, businesses, and citizens.Establishing backup energy and logistics systems for essential goods distribution.Enhancing the Solution’s EffectivenessA resilient, crisis-proof economic system must address Egypt’s vulnerabilities in trade, finance, and security by implementing: A decentralized digital marketplace to facilitate trade without relying on international banking systems.AI-powered logistics &amp; supply chain tracking to optimize resource distribution.An alternative digital economy using blockchain-based transactions to ensure financial security.<ol><li data-list="bullet">A secure crisis communication network to coordinate citizens, businesses, and government agencies.</li></ol>

In response to the potential outbreak of a third world war and the risk of Egypt becoming isolated from global trade and financial systems, this project aims to develop a self-sustaining, decentralized digital ecosystem. The goal is to ensure economic stability, resource accessibility, and secure communication for citizens, businesses, and the government in times of crisis.

This solution will be delivered as an application-based platform that integrates barter trade, digital currency, AI-driven supply chain management, emergency communication, and cybersecurity measures.

The integration of CFRP materials into automotive designs presents challenges related to compatibility, performance, and safety, necessitating a careful transition from a Chromolly tubular space frame to a CFRP monocoque. Key considerations include determining the optimal geometry for suspension, aerodynamic features, and the placement of components like the battery pack and sensors, all while adhering to FSAE safety protocols. Additionally, decisions regarding the production method—whether to use preimpregnated carbon fibers or an injection method—must be made early to facilitate timely production. The development process involves creating molds and plugs from suitable materials, ensuring that all assemblies can be connected without compromising structural integrity, and maintaining strict adherence to budget constraints and sourcing of materials.

the monocoque is the backbone of the vehicle, every single component is reliant on it and bolts up to it. first a study on the materials must be conducted, which manufacturing methodology will be best, resin infusion or prepreg CF. Further research to be conducted is abpit the cpre material, wether it be a aluminium or kevlar honeycomb structure or a rigid pvc foam such as rohacell, a derivitive of that is the decision on how to bolt certain components. in key areas such as the front bulkhead there can be no crushing of the the core material, that means that an implanted aluminium plate must be used or potted inserts. after that outside components must be decided on such as the suspension geometry, the size, location and means of taking out the battery box. outside sensors such as Li-Dar and camera, heat evacuation components such as radiators, and aerodynamic components such as an undertray and wings.after that it is needed to start a 3d model of the chassis, this is in order to be able to start FEA analysis based on the characterization of different requirements from different parts of the chassis, and in order to be able to have a rough estimate of material thickness' per area. testing must be done to make sure the equivalncy of the CF is met according to FSAE stanards, all equivalncy tests are compared to 1010 steel. the equivalncy tests are a 3 point bend test and a shear test where a punch must penentrate al layers of the laminate.once the geometry is agreed upon the design of a mold must begin, the first step is to make a "plug", from that the molds are made which are usually 2- piece molds and finally the CF can be laid onto the molds to make the chassis.

the team is made of three branches, mechanical, electrical and autonomous. in mechanical compoments such as suspension geometry, brake pedal and steering geometry, heat evacuation, aerodynamics, battery packing, drivetrain. in electrical there are high voltage, low (and medium) voltage and communication components. and in autonomous the components affecting chassis design are perception&amp;mapping

Functional Modeling of team

inside the mechanical branch the product of making a chassis is contingent on many mini-projects and teams finalizing their design. such as suspension designing a push-rod or pull-rod configuration, aero deciding on wether they will need ground effect and from that a flat floor, the back side of the car holds the battery pack so high voltage and battery pack teams need to decide on the size of the fuel cell, and drive train need to decide on mounting
