<div>Dear Colleagues,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I would be curious to know your thoughts on the following questions regarding precious metal sputter targets:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1. Who pays for the initial purchase of the target: end user(s) or fab operations?</div>
<div><br name="BB10" caretmarkerset="INVALID" class="markedForCaretMarkerRemoval">
</div>
<div>2. If the fab owns the target how do you keep track of the amount used per user? </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>3. If the user owns the target, is it installed/removed for each run? If it is kept in the chamber, how do you keep non-owners of the target from using it?</div>
<div><span style="font-family: Calibri, 'Slate Pro', sans-serif;"><br>
</span></div>
<div><span>4. Any suggestions on how to minimize errors/abuses would be appreciated.</span></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span>Thank you</span></div>
<div><span>Vito</span></div>
