Cleanroom Access Requirements

Access Request

• You must first log in to https://my.mntl.illinois.edu/sharedfacilities/ - if you do not have a profile, you will need to create one.

To create a profile, first select your profile type.

Then enter your email address, account number (CFOP to be obtained from Principal Investigator), principal investigator, Project name and description (if you are unsure, you can use "HMNTL Project"), and Access Request (areas in HMNTL that you need access to).

• Send hmntl-access@illinois.edu a front and back copy of your icard. Access is granted through the numbers associated with your physical card. If you obtain a new card, it will need to be sent in to update your account before you're able to access the building again.

Orientation

Once all trainings are submitted, you will be contacted to schedule an orientation. The orientation is in two parts:

• Orientation and Safety - lasts approximately 1.5 hrs
• Cleanroom walkthrough

You will schedule the walkthrough at the end of the first orientation. Once the walkthrough is complete, you will be granted access. 

Tool Training

To become an approved user on a particular tool, a training with an engineer will need to be scheduled. This is required before using a tool by yourself. After you are a user, you will be able to reserve a tool and receive information about tool status and availability. Training is required for any use of HF or Piranha etch. Under the Tool access section on https://my.mntl.illinois.edu/sharedfacilities/, please add the desired tool and sign up for training. 

Office and Lab Keys

If physical keys are needed to labs or offices, a request form is needed. Please complete the below form and have your advisor sign before submission. Then submit the form to hmntl-access@illinois.edu.
