[labnetwork] Iridium sputter target?

[N Shane Patrick]

I don’t know who else on campus might be running a system for that, but we, at least, don’t currently have Iridium capability.

We don't have an iridium target and it probably doesn't make a lot of sense for us to purchase one for extremely limited interest/use. However, if there is another lab that has this capability I would be happy to steer them to you for at least this step in their process.
