We have observed the solar limb using 1024 × 1024 InSb Near Infrared Camera and Spectroheliograph at McMath-Pierce telescope during the solar minimum period of April 29 to May 1, 2008. A 120 micron slit, corresponding to 0.3 arc second was aligned perpendicular to the solar limb for the observations. The slit spectrum with a resolution of 0.036 Å corresponding to about 05 to 1.0 km/s were obtained in the wavelength regions of HeI 10830 Å, Hydogen Paschen α 12818 Å and Hydrogen Brackett γ 21661 Å. Excellent seeing conditions and the use of adaptive optics produced stable observing conditions during most of the observations. We present the results of line width variation as a function of chromospheric height around the solar limb.
