The detection of large-amplitude infrared solar intensity oscillations in the 5-min region is reported. The peak-to-peak intensity variation at 2.23 microns is found to be as high as 2.4 percent for a circular aperture of 2 arcmin and 0.8 percent in the full disk observations, i.e., remarkably higher than at the other four observed wavelength regions. The spatially-integrated power spectrum shows the 5-min oscillation plus a strong feature near 4 mHz. This feature coincides in frequency with the fundamental p-mode resonance of the chromosphere. However, a power-spectrum autocorrelation as well as a second-order Fourier transform of the data suggest that a high-frequency tail of the 5-min power spectrum is a more likely interpretation of this feature.
