We demonstrate that both single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) types and nanotube-matrix polymer-nanotube (CNT-P-CNT) junctions have profound impact on electro-optical properties of SWCNT/polymer composites. Composite IR sensors based on CoMoCAT (R)-produced SWCNTs (SWCNTsCoMoCAT) significantly outperform those based on HiPco (R)-produced SWCNTs (SWCNTSHiPco). Higher semiconducting nanotube concentration in a SWCNT material is critical to enhance the photo effect of IR light on SWCNT/polymer nanocomposites, whereas CNT-P-CNT junctions play a dominant role in the thermal effect of IR light on supported SWCNT/polymer composite films.
