Subject: Anneal of SN1535 at 300°C for 10 hours 

SN1535 was annealed between 07 and 08 September 2021 - used the large furnace in Downs 221, atmosphere was air, used glass petri dishes to protect optic (from Gabriele and CRiMe).

Controller parameters:

Ramp up rate = 100 °C per hour
Hold temp = 300 °C
Hold time = 10 hours
Ramp down rate = 100 °C per hour

Witness RTD observed a ~21 °C overshoot and ~14 °C offset from controller RTD. These parameters were consistent with the elog entry ENG_Labs/253. See attached image of the temperature profile (.xlsx file is source document).

Optic is now with Liyuan in RTS for recharacterization after anneal.
