Non-stop 3 day clean room process... ngantuk!

Alhamdulillah... baru jer abis xperiment aku utk Ni/Au/Au(cap)... 3 hari tak stop... esok Insya'Allah buat measurement. Nak wat ari nih dah tak larat... dah penat & ngantuk nih. 3 hari... more than 15 hours of work and less than 6 hours sleep, OK la jugak kan. Tp laporrrrrrr!!! Ntah ape la aku makan, telan roti sapu kaya yg Ma bagi bawak bekal gi Shanghai ari tu jer.

Mlm tadi gi makan kat Tenki, tak larat dah nak masak... lagipun kalu aku masak, rugi 2 jam masa, baik guna utk tido. Ntah mlm tadi aku tido kol 10-1 jer kot. Kucai kejut awal sgt aa... aku cek timer rupanya kol 2 baru jadik 8 jam utk vacuum pumping utk evaporation beam deposition kat clean room nih. Mandi + semayang subuh pagi tadi, kol 4 pagi aku bertolak... gi pulangkan dvd kat Tsutaya dulu sbelum dtg lab... switch ON main power EB at 4:30AM... siap Au deposion at 5:45AM, then masuk acetone for lift-off. Siap boleh bet kat eBay lagi pagi tadi sementara nunggu acetone@55 deg C (30 min). Lift off cam ok sket dari Ni/Au sebelum nih, tp senang sgt tercabut. Patut kurangkan mase utk acetone immersion kot. Takpun ubah surface treatment before Au deposition. Air and N2 ambient annealing done simultaneously, everyhing was OK.

Okay la... dah jadik xperiment report plak... kepala pk pasal mende tu jer. Stat from esok dah kena concentrate on LD process pulak, sensei & Hao san dah stat bunyi dah tu. Ya Allah... moga2 electrode nih berjaya dpt Ohmic with the lowest specific contact resistance ever, to enable lasing... Insya'Allah.

Bye dulu, nak semayang Zohor & makan roti plak... nnt pegi jejalan Osu/ Sakae aa jap... this is the only holiday I've for this weekend... tinggal 4-6 jam jer lagi. Wassalam.

Alhamdulillah... syukur...

Pagi tadi Alhamdulillah dah settle presentation kelas Egawa sensei, tak la teruk sgt. Kat Ebers-Moll modell tu ok aa... semua equations boleh disettlekan. Tak percaya pulak aku... start dari awal kelas die, mase abis Emers-Moll tu dah kol 11:45... 5 min jer lagi tinggal mase. Egawa tanyer aa boleh abis ke tak nih, aku cakap ok kot... tp mmg tak sempat aa. Pasal Emitter Efficiency tu... aku dah blank dah... kurang persediaan kot pasal tu. Lepas tu, die cakap sambung minggu depan aa pulok. Aku ok jer, boleh prepare lebih sket.

Lepas Zohor & makan ngan Kucai, Kutu, Zam, Pejal n Mokh... aku ajak Orioka buat I-V and TLM meas. Alhamdulillah... syukur sungguh! VERY GOOD RESULT for my p-GaN Ni/Au electrode, guna aku nyer surface treatment procedure. Alhamdulillah... usaha tak tido malam & bangun pagi2 tak tentu masa pegi skolah sejak-2-menjak nih. Process utk nih baru jer stat sabtu lepas (RIE/ activation anneal), Ahad cuti, Isnin (surface cleaning/ TLM).. sampai load dlm evaporation chamber kol 12 mlm tu. Pgi Selase aku dtg kol 7, metal evaporation sampai kol 8:30 tu, then gi kelas sampai kol 12. Kol 1 gitu stat ngan Orioka buat annealing. Ari nih lepas presentation tadi buat meas tu... Alhamdulillah...

Good motivation for further investigation in surface treatment method... wassalam.

"Yang terjadi biar saja terjadi...

Bagaimanapun hidup memang hanya cerita...

Cerita tentang meninggalkan dengan yang ditinggalkan..."

Cinta

by Melly Goeslow feat Kris Dayanti

Menatap jalan yang menjauh
Tentukan arah yg ku mau
Tempatkan aku pada satu peristiwa
Yang membuat hati lara

Di dekat engkau aku tenang
Sendu matamu penuh tanya
Misteri hidup akankah menghilang?
Dan bahagia di akhir cerita

Cinta tegarkan hatiku
Tak mau sesuatu merenggut engkau
Naluriku berkata tak ingin terulang lagi
Kehilangan cinta hati bagai raga tak bernyawa
Aku junjung petuamu
Cintai dia yg mencintaiku
Hati yang dulu belayar kini telah menepi
Bukankah hidup kita akhirnya harus bahagia

Di dekat engkau aku tenang
Sendu matamu penuh tanya
Misteri hidup akankah menghilang?
Dan bahagia di akhir cerita

Cinta tegarkan hatiku
Tak mau sesuatu merenggut engkau
Naluriku berkata tak ingin terulang lagi
Kehilangan cinta hati bagai raga tak bernyawa

Aku junjung petuamu
Cintai dia yg mencintaiku
Hati yang dulu belayar kini telah menepi
Bukankah hidup kita akhirnya harus bahagia

Cinta biar saja ada
Yang terjadi biar saja terjadi
Bagaimanapun hidup memang hanya cerita
Cerita tentang meninggalkan dengan yang ditinggalkan

Cinta...

Changing the MAC Address in W2K and XP

Changing the MAC address in W2K and XP

(This page stolen from http://www.klcconsulting.net/change_mac_w2k.htm
because I wanted a copy in my notes here so I wouldn't lose it.)

Method 1:

This is depending on the type of Network Interface Card (NIC) you have. If
you have a card that doesn't support Clone MAC address, then you have to go to
second method.

1. Goto Start->Settings->Control Panel and double click on Network and
   Dial-up Connections.
   

2. Right click on the NIC you want to change the MAC address and click on
   properties.
   

3. Under"General" tab, click on the "Configure" button.
   

4. Clickon "Advanced" tab.
   

5. Under "Property section" you should see an item called "Network Address" or "Locally Administered Address", click on it.
   

6. On the right side, under "Value" type in the New MAC address you want to
   assign to your NIC. Usually this value is entered without the "-" between the MAC address numbers.
   

7. Go to command prompt and type in "ipconfig /all" or "net config rdr" to
   verify the changes. If the changes are not materialized, then use the second method.
   

8. If successful, reboot your systems.
   

Method 2:

This method requires some knowledge on the Windows Registry. If you are not familiar with Windows Registry, just use the SMAC tool to change the MAC addresses, or consult with a technical person before you attempt on the following steps. Also, make sure you have a good backup of your registry.

a. Goto command prompt and type "ipconfig /all" and

I. Record the Description for the NIC you want to change.

II. Record the Physical Address for the NIC you want to change.
Physical Address is the MAC Address

Figure 1.

b. Goto command prompt and type "net config rdr" and you should see
something like

Figure 2.

c. Remember the number between the long number (GUID) inside the { }.
For example, in the above "net config rdr" output, for MAC address
"0C095ECB793", you should remember {1C9324AD-ADB7-4920-B02D-AB281838637A}. You can copy and paste it to the Notepad, that's probably the easiest way. (See figure 2.)

d. Go to Start -> Run, type "regedt32" to start registry editor.
Do not use "Regedit".

e. Do a BACKUP of your registry in case you screw up the following steps.
To do this

I. Click
on "HEY_LOCAL_MACHINE on Local Machine" sub-window

II. Click
on the root key "KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE".

III. Click
on the drop-down menu "Registry -> Save Subtree As" and save the backup
registry in to a file. Keep this file in a safe place.

f. Go to "KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEMCurrentControlSet\Control\Class{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-
08002BE10318}. Double click on it to expand the tree. The
subkeys are 4-digit numbers, which represent particular network adapters. You should see it starts with 0000, then 0001, 0002, 0003 and so
on. (See figure 3.)

Figure 3.

g. Go through each subkey that starts with 0000. Click on 0000, check DriverDesc
keyword on the right to see if that's the NIC you want to change the MAC
address. The DriveDesc should match the Description you
recorded from step (a.-I.). If you are not 100% sure about the DriverDesc,
then you can verify by checking if the NetCfgInstanceID keyword value
matches the GUID from step (c).

If there is no match, then move on to 0001, 0002, 0003, and so on, until you
find the one you want. Usually 0000 contains the first NIC you
installed on the computer.

In this demonstration, 0000 is the NIC I selected. (See figure 3.)

h. Once you selected the subkey (i.e. 0000), check if there is a keyword "NetworkAddress" exist in the right side of the window. (See figure 3.)

I. If "NetworkAddress" keyword does not exist, then create this new keyword:

i. Click on the drop down menu "Edit -> Add Value".

ii. In the Add Value window, enter the following value then click OK. (See figure 4.)

Value Name: = NetworkAddress

Data Type: = REG_SZ

Figure 4.

iii. String Editor window will pop up at this time (see figure
5.)

iv. Enter the new MAC address you want to modify. Then click OK.

(There should not be any "-" in this address. Your entry should only consist of 12 digits as seen in the figure 5.)

II. If "NetworkAddress" keyword exists, make sure it shows the
keyword type is REG_SZ, and it should show as NetworkAddress:REG_SZ: .
This keyword might not have a value at this time.

i. Double click on the keyword NetworkAddress
and the String Editor window will pop up. (See Figure 5.)

ii. Enter the new MAC address you want to modify. Then click OK.

(There should not be any "-" in this address. Your entry should only consist of 12 digits as seen in the figure 5.)

Figure 5.

j. There are 2 ways to make the new MAC address active. Method I does
not require a system reboot:

I. Goto Start->Setting->Control Panel, and double click on
"Network Neighborhood".

WARNING: Make sure you understand that you WILL lose the
network connection after completing step "ii." below, and if you have a DHCP client, you will get a new IP address after completing step "iii."

i. Select the Network Adaptor you just changed the MAC address.

ii. Right click on the selected Network Adaptor and click "Disable."

Verify the status column for this adaptor changes to "Disabled"

iii. Right click on the selected Network Adaptor and click "Enable."

Verify the status column for this adaptor changes to "Enabled"

iv. If for any reason it cannot be disabled or re-enabled, you have to reboot your system to make the changes effective.

II. Reboot your Windows system.

k. Once completing step j (if rebooting the system, wait until the reboot is
completed), go to command prompt, type "ipconfig /all" to confirm
the new MAC address.

Restore The TRUE Hardware burned-in MAC Address:

1. Remove the entry you added:

1. If you followed Method 1, then go back to the advanced properties window and remove the entry you add.

2. If you followed Method 2, then remove the "NetworkAddress" keyword you added in the registry.
   

2. Usestep (j) above to activate the change you make.

3. Once rebooted, go to command prompt, type "ipconfig /all" to confirm
   the original MAC address.
   

If MAC Address changes does not work:

If for whatever reason the MAC address cannot be changed using method 2, make sure you restore the registry setting by following the "Restore The TRUE Hardware burned-in MAC Address" instruction above. If necessary, restore the registry you just backed-up to get your system back to the original state. You can do this by clicking on the drop-down menu "Registry->Restore", and restore your backup registry file.

or use SMAC.

Dari pagi berlari sampai malam

Nih la idup... pagi bangun tido, terus bergegas dtg lab... awal gak pagi tadi, kol 8 sampai skolah. Plan semalam nak dtg kol 6-7 pagi, tp terbangun lambat aa... 7:02AM baru terbangun... nih kes tutup jam loceng nyer pasal aa nih.

Sampai skolah, 8:10 dah masuk clean room, buat HCl etching utk sample aku 2 ari lepas. Then load dlm evaporation beam chamber for Al deposition. Berpusing kepala, tangan ngan kaki nak kejar mase nyer pasal... kol 8:05AM (jam clean room) abis setting, terus berlari keluar pegi lecture hall utk kelas Yamamoto sensei. Alhamdulillah la jugak sbb partner Jepun duk sebelah best la jugak... Yonaha pun ade kat depan jer, so taklah cuak sgt cam kelas first time last week. Jepun tu pun baik jer ajar aku... kelas nyer kerja pun tak teruk sgt hari nih... kire menarik aa jugak.

Abis kelas, berlari balik lab... Takashima n Orioka dah pun ada tunggu aku, BAGUS!!! "Kol 11 nnt kite stat", aku kate kat diorang aa nih. Then, stat la kerja aku... dari deposition Al, lift-off sampai RTA annealing. Lepas diorang balik dlm kol 5:30 PM tadi, aku sambung lagi photolithography dan sekarang nih tgh vacum utk Ni/Au deposition. Lama gak nunggu nih... dlm 90 ke 120 min. Makan aa megi dulu, ntah satu hape tak telan lagi hari nih... kebulur betul aku nih!

Hmm... pasal scholarship, aku dah jumpa dah Mr Yamaguchi (Foreign Student Office) siang tadi, memacam die tanyer aku pasal visa ari tu... scholar pun banyak die tanyer. Aku skarang nih jadik private student katenyer. Pasal JPA x approve lagi scholarship aku pun die dah tau... aku amik die nyer tel & fax number skali utk Husna (KUKUM) antar financial affidavit kat die nanti.

Okay aa dulu... makan & buat report electromagnetic nih sementara tunggu abis vacum. Bye & wassalam ;)

Xperiment lagi...

Huh... lama sungguh dok tulih blog nih. Nih sesaje bosan sambil makan meggi kat lab nih, tulih aa kejap. Pendape aa nok tulih nih... hmm... ari nih cam biase aa buat xperimen. Ingat tadi nak balik jer skali ngan Orioka (B4) lepas ajar die cara guna thermal resistance annealing, tp pk pk balik... baik aku terus buat photolithography utk TLM patterning. So, jimat sket masa utk esok. Abis semua TLM patterning malam nih utk 9 keping sample tu, esok tgh hari boleh start vacumm utk Al deposition. Abis kelas Opto-electronic kol 2:30PM tu, boleh deposit, then dlm kol 4:30 gitu dah boleh buat RTA anneal. Tp aku blank nih... nak anneal esok ker, lusa sbb lepas anneal tu kena teruskan xperiment tu dlm masa 6 jam tanpa henti utk elakkan sample tu rosak. Hmmm... peninn gak nih. Okay aa dulu, sambung lagi lain kali... abis dah mase nih.

Final Year Research Presentation

Alhamdulillah... usaha sbg undergraduate student selama 4 tahun kat Nagoya Institute of Technology nih dah sampai ke penghujung. Petang tadi dah siap dah presentation utk ECE (Electrical and Computer Eng.) Department. Ntah camane ntah... mase present tu ade sangkut2 sket sbb terlupa plak sket2 permulaan ayat. Ade la dlm 2-3 saat gak kot setiap kali sangkut, so terpaksa la aku goreng sket, tp goreng dlm bahase Jepun nih bukanlah sama cam goreng dlm bahase Melayu or English... goreng pun susah la jugak sbb takut tak bersambung ngan point lepas tu. Tp ok la ayat2 yg aku goreng sket2 tu... ntah camane la boleh lupa ekk. Cuak nyer pasal aa nih. Tp takpe la... secara keseluruhannya ok la jugak, cuma aku jer tak puas hati ngan diri sendiri sbb Tsubota ok jer... mostly perfect. Satu gi mende alat remote control utk tukar slide kat tangan kiri aku tu asyk terskip slide jer, ampess gak aa sket. Tertolak kuat sgt kot die nyer punat tu, tp aku betulkan balik aa. Jadik cam nak test slide mase rehearsal pulak. Ntah ape2 la... mase rehearsal ari tu takde la pulak mende2 camnih. Hmm... sure cuak nyer pasal aa nih kot. Tp ape2 pon, ok aa kot. Sensei Arai tanyer pasal cukup ke tak 1.123 x 10*(-3) ohm cm*2 yg aku dapat stakat nih... so aku jawab jer la tak cukup lagi, sbb kalu boleh nak sampai 10*(-6). Egawa plak tanyer pasal lapping rate... tp sbb aku lupa, aku jawab aa aku tak kira lapping rate, tp diamond slurry lagi cepat dari SiC #4000... tu jer. Ampess gak aa jawapan aku tu... penat jer aku kira semua lapping rate ari tu, tp sbb lupa nyer pasal... terpaksa la aku jawab cam tu, buat jatuh imej jer. Sure Egawa ingat aku jenih tekitou jer buat jikken lepas nih, tp tak kisah la... kita tgk la hasil aku lepas nih!

Ochiyou, semua dah berakhir utk sementara waktu. Mat Rusop nyer sample kena buat mlm nih, tp die carik aku aku x de... aku carik die pulak die x de... aku gi party jer la dulu. Dah penat dah kepala otak nih. Ok la yek, bye & wassalam dulu.
