Scientific paper

We describe a new instrument, based on a NICMOS3 array, for the detection of interference fringes in the near-infrared at the Infrared-Optical Telescope Array. The camera saw ``first fringes'' in Spring of 1997 and has since been in routine use for a variety of astrophysical investigations. We present its design characteristics and parameters, which result in magnitude limits for fringe detection of J=8.4, H=8.5, and K^'=6.5.
