If you you mean Incandescent lamp filaments then Joseph Swan and Thomas Edison created the first lamps with carbon filaments.Edison's workers tried hundreds of fibres before carbonising a sliver of bamboo bark. These were later replaced with a coiled coil of Tungsten in the early 20th century. It was the invention of a process by William Coolidge that could coax this extremely hard and non ductile metal into a fine filament that revolutionised the durability of ordinary lamp bulb
