Abstract
A polarimeter for use from 1 μm - 5 μm on the IRTF is described. The instrument employs both cold and warm optical components and uses both fixed and rotating optical components. Instrumental polarization is less than 0.05% and faint magnitude limits open up a wide range of objects that can be observed for polarization.
