Instrument Scheduling
Many of the Center for Nanoscale Material’s (CNM) instruments have online scheduling calendars. Your scientific contact will instruct you on their use.
Tool Scheduler
Since CNM facilities are highly subscribed, take care to sign up for only what is necessary to complete your experiment.
The CNM tracks the time that is actually used in addition to what is scheduled.
Notify your scientific contact if you are going to be late for scheduled instrument time.
The CNM reserves the right to reassign the time if you are more than 40 minutes late for a scheduled block of longer than three hours, or 20 minutes late for a scheduled block of less than three hours. When you notify your scientific contact that you will be late, suitable adjustments and allowances may be possible at their discretion.
