Optogenetics & Lasers — FAQ
Choosing and timing light sources for optogenetic stimulation.
Laser or LED?
LEDs cover most single-wavelength protocols at lower cost; lasers deliver higher power and tighter fiber coupling for deep or multi-site stimulation.
How do I time light to the recording?
GPIO triggering aligns the source to the acquisition clock for sub-millisecond timing of stimulation against spikes.
Where are the patch cords and fibers?
Optical accessories — patch cords and fiber stubs — live under Supplies, alongside the other interface hardware.
