Current status of FRIDA, diffraction limited NIR Instrument for the GTC

FRIDA (inFRared Imager and Dissector for the Adaptive optics system of the Gran Telescopio Canarias) is designed as a diffraction limited instrument that will offer broad and narrow band imaging and integral field spectroscopy capabilities with low (R similar to 1,500), intermediate (R similar to 4,...
