Description
FRIDA (inFRrared Imager and Dissector for the Adaptive optics system of
the Gran Telescopio Canarias) is being designed as a diffraction limited
instrument with broad and narrow band imaging and integral field
spectroscopy capabilities to operate in the wavelength range 0.9 - 2.5
μm. FRIDA is a collaborative project between the main GTC partners,
namely, Spain, México and Florida. The main design
characteristics of FRIDA are described in this contribution.
