Abstract
The linear electro-optic effect in vacuum thermally poled silica fibres is measured. A value of elecro-optic coefficient of 0.05 pm/V is experimentally obtained. This value is about 25 times higher then previously reported in silica fibres and may be increased by optimising the poling conditions.Keywords
