Abstract
Fiber emitters, such as carbon nanotube (CNT) yarns, are used to create infrared (IR) transmitters that can operate at high data rates, can shift spectral response, and can emit polarized light, for example by alignment of the fiber emitters in close proximity and in parallel directions. These fiber emitters can, for example, be used in patches that can be bonded to fabric or to an object, or can be woven into fabric during fabrication of a textile. The fiber emitters can be used in a variety of methods, including for friend or foe identification, communications, and identification of objects.
