Our Optical fiber probe holder is a stainless steel rod having an FC receptacle on one end that allows a light delivery patch cord to be plugged in and at the other end an M3 receptacle where a probe can be screwed on. The two receptacles are mutually connected with an internal optical fiber housed within the 6.35 mm diameter rod that fits most popular micro manipulators. To avoid unnecessary optical losses, the selected optical fiber parameters such as the core diameter and NA should match those of the connecting fibers. The type of fiber within the holder is marked with appropriate color codes as shown on the table below. The fiber NA is engraved on the holder.

• 150 mm is the standard rod length. 100 mm is also available.
• An optional clamp can be used to fix the holder on stereotaxic apparatus.
