This is a single-channel optical fiber cannula essential for in vivo optogenetics. There are two types with diameters of 1.25mm and 2.5mm.
The optical fiber cannula, essential for InVivo optogenetics, is a component made of a zirconia ceramic or metal ferrule and optical fiber. The tip of the optical fiber is the side that will be implanted. There are diameters of 1.25mm and 2.5mm available. The most commonly used type for insertion into mouse brains has a ferrule made of zirconia ceramic with a diameter of 1.25mm (ZF1.25), and the optical fiber part is of type 200/240-0.22. The length of the optical fiber part can be specified in 0.1mm increments depending on your application (tolerance is <0.1mm). Additionally, multiple shapes of the optical fiber tip are available depending on the type of light diffusion. This optical fiber cannula connects to a patch cord via a sleeve, allowing light from the light source connected to the patch cord to be irradiated onto the brain or biological tissues. The zirconia ceramic version is recommended as it is lighter and places less burden on the organism compared to the metal version.

basic information
The optical fiber cannula is essential for in vivo optogenetics. The single-core optical fiber cannula (cannula) consists of a ferrule made of zirconia ceramics or metal and an optical fiber. The tip of the optical fiber is the side that will be implanted. There are diameters of 1.25mm and 2.5mm available. The most commonly used type for insertion into the mouse brain has a ferrule made of zirconia ceramics with a diameter of 1.25mm (ZF1.25), and the optical fiber part is of type 200/240-0.22. The length of the optical fiber part can be specified in 0.1mm increments depending on your application (tolerance is <0.1mm). Additionally, various shapes of the tip of the optical fiber are available depending on the type of light diffusion. This optical fiber cannula connects to a patch cord via a sleeve, allowing light from a light source connected to the patch cord to be irradiated onto the brain or living tissue. The zirconia ceramics version is recommended because it is lighter and places less burden on the living organism compared to the metal version.
