Abstract
We report on a procedure to prepare plastic optical fibers with in-line indium electrodes alongside a wave-guiding core. The goal is the realization of an electro-optic modulator device structure entirely contained with the cladding of the fiber. This work is analogous to that of Kuzyk and others at Washington State University, though we report on a different procedure to manufacture the preform from which the fiber is drawn.
