Description
We present the commissioning of an IFU based on image-slicers and a 2D-Field-of-View Scanning System (FoV-SS) for the GREGOR Infrared Spectrograph (GRIS). The prototype of the image-slicer has eight slices of 1.8 mm x 0.1 mm in Zerodur, covering an area of 20 arcsec2. The FoV-SS, equipped with three Degrees of Freedom (DoF), allows to scan a region of 1 arcmin2, feeding the image-slicer with different portions of the field of view. A batch of tests was done during the Assembly, Integration and Verification (AIV) at GREGOR telescope.
