Fiber optic cannula with 1.25 mm ceramic ferrule, 200 µm core diameter, 0.50 NA for photonics and neuro applications.
The Thorlabs CFMXC05 Fiber Optic Cannula features a precision-engineered ceramic ferrule with a diameter of 1.25 mm and a fiber core diameter of 200 µm, optimized for efficient light transmission in biomedical and photonics research. The cannula exhibits a numerical aperture (NA) of 0.50, providing a focused light delivery profile essential for applications in neuroscience, optogenetics, and biophotonics.
Key technical specifications include:
Designed for implantable optical fiber delivery in neural tissue and other bioprocessing environments, this fiber optic cannula supports precise light coupling for *molecular diagnostics*, *synthetic biology studies*, and *live-cell imaging* where controlled illumination is critical. The high NA enhances light collection efficiency, making it suitable for *fluorescence analysis* and *optogenetic modulation* frequently required in biopharmaceutical research pipelines.
This component is widely adopted in biotechnology research settings requiring robust, stable optical interfaces, including *gene editing experiments* and *biomanufacturing process monitoring*. Its compatibility with standard fiber optic systems facilitates integration into complex instrumentation used in *biomedical engineering* and *cell imaging*.
The Thorlabs CFMXC05 comes fully tested and ready for immediate deployment in demanding laboratory environments, ensuring reliability for critical biophotonics and neuroimaging research workflows.
Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.
We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.
We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.
With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.
Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.
Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.
Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.
We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
Tell us what you need and a scientist finds it for you, usually within the hour.
