MOS Design Submission Deadlines: Semester 2005B

This page contains the deadlines for completing Phase II MOS designs for GMOS North and GMOS South. The GMOS North deadlines are set close to the last quarter moon and take into account the time required for MOS design checking and mask cutting. For GMOS South there is additional time necessary for mask shipment. Failure to adhere to these deadlines means that your observations cannot be executed in the subsequent dark period and your masks will be cut at a later opportunity. Please ensure that the latest version of the mask design software is used.
