Abstract

Multipoint Light Emitting Optical Fibers (MPF) has been recently demonstrated as a versatile tool for spatially addressable optogenetics experiments. Their fabrication has been possible thanks to a number of key microfabrication technologies, in particular the unique nanofabrication capabilities of a Focused Ion Beam. This work provides the complete description of MPF fabrication, detailing the optimization process for each fabrication step.
