A single-mode optical-fibre electrically tunable switch has been successfully fabricated. It consists of an interferometer constructed by consecutive fabrication of two couplers in tandem. Tunable power transfer in the output arms was achieved by the thermo-optic effect. Fabrication and performance details are described. The possible application of this device as a low-speed modulator is also considered.
