Claim Text:
1. A system for transmitting RF signals, said system comprising: an electro-optic modulator for side conduction of voltage, said modulator comprising an optical waveguide component comprising an organic core component and cladding thereabout and optically coupled thereto, said organic core component connected to opposed co-planar metallic electrodes with top and bottom laterally-extending transparent conducting oxide electrode bridge components, said cladding consisting of a bottom cladding component and two lateral cladding components co-planar with said core component, each said lateral cladding component positioned between said core component and a said metallic electrode, said waveguide component providing optical mode confinement in the horizontal direction; and a switching voltage applied across said core component with said laterally-extending transparent conducting oxide electrode bridge components.
