摘要：

A 1-5 mu m Infrared Camera and Spectrograph (IRCS) is described. The IRCS will be a facility instrument for the 8.2 m Subaru Telescope at Mauna Kea. It consists of two sections, a spectrograph and a camera section. The spectrograph is a cross-dispersed echelle that will provide a resolving power (lambda/Delta lambda) of 20,000 with a slit width of 0.15 arcsec and two-pixel sampling. The camera section serves as a slit viewer and as a camera with two pixel scales, 0.022 arcsec/pixel and 0.060 arcsec/pixel. Grisms providing 400-1400 resolving power will be available. Each section will utilize an ALADDIN II 1024x1024 InSb array. The instrument specifications are optimized for 2.2 mu m using the adaptive optics and the tip-tilt secondary systems of the Subaru Telescope.
