Abstract
In the field of high resolution solar physics, the french telescope THEMIS is designed to be operated at the Teide Observatory. It is a 90cm polarization-free telescope, with two 7.5m spectrographs, devoted to magnetic field measurements, in a number of simultaneous spectral line profiles. The instrument is under construction. The time schedule aims at operation during the SOHO observations. In addition to this great project, a french spectro-imaging instrument is presently working at the german VTT telescope. Using a Multichannel Subtractive Double Pass (MSDP), it provides simultaneous images in many wavelengths (typically 20), covering two line profiles. The 2D-character is very valuable for coordinated observations with space probes.
