I've seen carbon fiber used in braces and just nowsaw a couple of posts about using it in necks (in the african mahogany neck thread).

How is it used? And where do you get it?

It is used as stiffeners on both sides of the truss rod channel. You channel the fretboard edge of the neck to the dims of the CF rods. You can get it at many places Stew-Mac and LMI both sell it.
