Abstract
Thermal poling current and electrooptic evolution were studied for a standa rd twin-hole fiber and two novel design twin-hole fibers. The poling charac teristics were modified in the novel fibers, which had a trap or donor regi on inside the anode hole. Modifications of the poling characteristics were observed in both the current evolution and the electrooptic evolution. The novel fiber designs can facilitate the tailoring of poled fiber device char acteristics.
