管理及服務辦法 User regulations

1. 本機台為B級機台，提供委託及自行操作服務。
The system is classified as a Grade B instrument, and operation can be carried out by the individual making the reservation or by qualified personnel.
2. 申請委託操作者須事先與儀器管理員連絡並進行實驗討論評估，確認樣品及製程可使用本機台，並由管理員估價計算費用後，經指導教授或主管同意後，方可提出使用申請。
Those applying for commissioned operation should discuss and evaluate the experiment with the instrument administrator in advance, ensuring that the sample and fabrication process are suited for the instrument. The application can be filed after the cost is estimated by the administrator and approved by either the advisor or the supervisor.
3. 委託操作使用者採序號預約，確認可提出使用申請者請先至本中心網站下載『低溫電性量測平台實驗申請單』，詳填資訊後，e-mail至cnst-adm@cc.nctu.edu.tw並以電話或E-mail與儀器負責人洽詢使用時段及確認實驗條件與試片製備。委託申請人需在現場共同進行實驗。
Each case of commissioned operation is by reservation only. Applicants who have been evaluated and approved can down the “Cryogenic Probe Station application form” from our website, and email the completed form to cnst-adm@cc.nctu.edu.tw. The applicants are required to contact the instrument administrator via phone or email regarding the available time slot, sample preparation and fabrication. The applicants have to be present for the duration of the experiment.
4. 申請人按通知時間至實驗室做試片測試。
The applicant will be informed the time for measurement. Please arrive the lab on time.
5. 由於實驗操作(如控溫等過程)有其所需之時間，會視實驗者狀況調整時間，故只能按預約順序排序，無法確定等候時間長短。
Because some experimental procedures, such as temperature control, can not be interrupted, the ending time of the experiment is not predictable. The process of the measurement will be adjusted according to the progress of the experiment. The reservation will be in the order of reserved number. The exact timetable is not available.
6. 使用者須遵守實驗室所有相關規定。違反實驗室規定者依本中心實驗室管理規則辦理。
Users must abide by the regulations of the laboratory. Those in violation of lab regulations are subject to punishments accordingly.
7.。如有任何疑問，歡迎來電洽詢儀器負責人員。
Please feel free to contact the administrator for any further inquiries.
8. 機台使用費用規定請參照『七、收費標準』。
Please refer to “VII. Fee-Charging Standard” for details of fees for using the instrument.

自行操作訓練與考核辦法 Guideline for independent operation and evaluation

1. 本系統自行操作以指導教授、計畫主持人或公司行號為單位，每位申請者須同時提出其研究使用計畫及材料特性予本中心，由本中心評估並決定是否可接受其申請。
The applicants who want to operate by themselves need to submit the details of their experiment and sample material for application of membership and the training program. The account of membership is registered under your supervisor, PI, or company name.
2. 申請者上網下載並填寫『低溫電性量測平台實驗申請單』詳填使用者與試片資訊後，e-mail至lcli@faculty.nctu.edu.tw，本中心將儘速回覆您的使用申請。申請核可後，管理員會以E-mail將『見習訓練紀錄表』寄予申請人，在申請人見習時數完成後，可email與管理員洽詢上機訓練時段。
Applicants should download the “Cryogenic Probe Station application form” online and email the completed form, including details about the user and lamella, to lcli@faculty.nctu.edu.tw. We will respond to your application as soon as possible. Once the application is approved, the administrator will email a log sheet for the probationary training to the applicant. Upon completion of probationary training, the applicant can contact the administrator for the booking of hands-on training.
3. 自行操作分為室溫自行操作者與全程自行操作者。室溫自行操作者僅在室溫操作量測儀器端之系統，並不包括儀器低溫環境操作。而全程自行操作者則為已受過適當操作訓練之使用者，由本中心評估並決定是否接受訓練申請。
There are two kind of independent operation licenses: operating users at room temperature (RT) and fully operating users. For operating users at RT, they are only allowed to operate the measuring system at room temperature. Controlling the cryogenic system is forbidden. Those applying the fully operating user license need to be go through properly hands-on training after they have the partially operating user license.
The rights of permission for fully operating user training is reserved.
4. 本機台訓練時數其規定如下：
a. 室溫自行操作新訓人員累積訓練時數達 4 hr以上者方可向儀器負責人申請考核。
b. 全程自行操作新訓人員需會累積測量訓練時數達 5 hr以上及所有儀器操作時數達5 hr以上者，方可向儀器負責人申請考核。
The regulations of training program are:
a. For the operating license at RT, the user has to accumulate 4 hours of hands-on training before applying for qualification.
b. Once the user accumulates over 5 hours of independent operation at RT, he may apply for the hands-on fully operating training. After accumulating over 5 hours of hands-on fully operating training, he may apply for fully operating evaluation.
5. 訓練時數達到上述之時數後，可向管理員申請考核。考核通過後，可於週一至週五8:00~17:00自行操作。全程自行操作累積使用時數達30小時以上，並未有任何違反機台規定與任何損及行為者，可申請全開放時段之使用權限。
Those who have accumulated the above-mentioned hours of training can approach the administrator for the evaluation application. Once the users pass the evaluation, they can operate the instrument independently from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM. Those accumulating 30 hours of independent operation without violating any regulation or causing any damage may apply for unrestricted access permission.
6. 合格使用者皆有訓練新訓人員之義務。
All qualified users are obligated to train new personnel.
7. 各實驗室可自行訓練新訓人員。
Training of new personnel can be conducted voluntarily by members of each lab.
8. 考核通過者若連續 6 個月無操作紀錄，取消其自行操作資格。日後若需自行操作，需另行申請、訓練、考核。
Qualified users without any record of operation for 6 months will be disqualified from independent operation. They will be required to repeat the process of application, training, and evaluation again, should they need to operate independently.
9. 本中心將於實驗完畢後依據使用時間斟酌自儲值費用中扣取實驗費用。
The charge for the operation will be deducted from the pre-paid account of your membership upon completion of experiment.
