    Yes. Check out the IPE ETF distribution rate (invested in TIPs):

    ETFConnect - Fund Quick Facts - SPDR Barclays Capital TIPS ETF - IPE

    Currently distributing at an 8% annual rate.
    Do you own this ETF? Is there a mutual fund which invests in the same thing? I haven't seen an 8% yield on inflation bonds, so I am interested.

      Vanguard's VIPSX is similar, but not paying nearly the yield. VIPSX's last quarterly distribution was .20 a share, which works out to around 6.7% annual yield. The SEC yield is currently 1.54% but that doesn't include the inflation adjustment portion. When you add in approx 5% inflation that is where the 6.7% is coming from.
