ABSTRACT:
An optical fiber which modifies the optical signals propagated through the fiber and has refractive properties which change in response to electromagnetic energy. The outer surface of the fiber forms at least one groove extending along a selected length of the fiber for receiving an electrode, which would apply an electrical voltage to the fiber resulting in a change of the refractive properties of the fiber.
