Scientific paper

We present low-resolution near-infrared spectra obtained with NIRSPEC on the KECK II telescope for a sample of brown dwarf candidates that were previously identified in the IFA Subaru/Suprimecam deep survey. The photometric identification was made on the basis of extremely red optical colors.The NIRSPEC spectra allow us to derive spectral classification and to estimate the surface temperature of these ultracool objects.
