  • Abstract
    Electro-optic intensity modulation is reported for the first time in a device consisting of a glass fibre directional coupler with an active KDP cladding. Tests suggest that, within about 0.5¿m of the fibre surface, the KDP crystal has its bulk index, but a reduced electro-optic coefficient
