A Single-cell Recording Optoelectric Probe Tip is a piece of dual core optical fiber with a 500 µm optical core and a 250 µm hollow core for electrolyte filling with one end pulled and cut to a 10 µm diameter tip as illustrated above. The probe tip is simply inserted into dedicated Single-cell Recording Optoelectric Probe Holder. A black coating can be added to minimize the light output/input in the shoulder of the tapered part of the probe.


The Single-cell Recording Optoelectric Probes are perfectly suited for in vivo single-cell electrophysiological recordings, optogenetic stimulation and photometry monitoring.

Notes:
  • Optoelectric probe tips are sold in lots of 20 units.
  • 10 µm is the standard fiber tip diameter. Other values on request.


Optical fiber NA 0.23
Pulled tip diameter 10 µm, Optical core and hollow core ratio is preserved. Other tip diameters available on request
Fiber diameter 1 mm
Hollow core diameter 250 µm, For electrolyte filling, off-centered
Optical fiber core diameter 500 µm, Off-centered
Shank (taper) length 3-7 mm
Total length 30-35 mm
