Abstract
Cheap and practical infra red (IR) sources are incandescent sources such as globar or hot membranes. These sources are broadband, omnidirectional, have a low efficiency and cannot be modulated faster than 100 Hz. In this paper, we show how it is possible to overcome all these limitations by taking advantage of surface waves.
