Abstract
An overview is given of the structure and the physics of magnetic features in solar plages, as derived from observations of near-infrared lines. First, the diagnostic potential of near-infrared lines is compared with that of lines in the visible and at 12 μm. Then, the results on the magnetic and velocity structure of magnetic features obtained from 1.5 μm lines are described, discussed and compared with results of observations in the visible and with theoretical predictions. Finally, the past and present achievements of near-infrared investigations of Zeeman-split lines are summarized.
