Descripción
In this contribution, the main characteristics of the=20 Tenerife
Infrared Polarimeter (TIP), recently built at the Instituto de
Astrofísica de Canarias, to be operated at the German Solar
Telescopes (GCT and VTT) of the Observatorio del Teide (Tenerife) are
presented. Especial emphasis is put on the modulation scheme,
polarisation efficiencies, signal-to-noise ratio, spatial and spectral
resolution, and instrumental polarisation cross-talk. Some examples of
data recently obtained are presented, which give an idea of the
performance and capabilities of this instrument.
