Abstract :
Summary form only given. We have designed and fabricated a polymeric in-line fiber modulator using novel fabrication techniques. This device is based on evanescent coupling from a fiber half-coupler to a nonlinear polymer waveguide and takes advantage of a unique polymer deposition process.
