We present a simple way to insert an optical fiber, with existing standard SubMiniature version A connectors on both ends into a vacuum system. The fitting is tested in scanning electron microscope, at working pressures down to 2 × 10(-5) mbar for cathodoluminescent measurements. With slight modifications this fitting could be successfully adapted for optical fiber insertion into pressurized systems.

Background: Permethrin is a pesticide used to kill insects, and once used in excess, it poses a great threat to the environment and human health, therefore, it is necessary to realize the rapid and accurate detection of permethrin. Fiber optic surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) probes have the advantages of small volume and can be used for remote monitoring, which have great potential for application in achieving in-situ detection of pesticide residues.
Results: Fiber taper waist (FTW) SERS probes modified by silver nanocubes-graphene oxide (Ag NCs-GO) composite structures were prepared for in situ detection of permethrin in lake water.

Dissecting how membrane receptors regulate neural circuits is critical for deciphering principles of neuromodulation and mechanisms of drug action. Here, we use a battery of optical approaches to determine how presynaptic metabotropic glutamate receptor 2 (mGluR2) in the basolateral amygdala (BLA) controls anxiety-related behavior in mice. Using projection-specific photopharmacological activation, we find that mGluR2-mediated presynaptic inhibition of ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC)-BLA, but not posterior insular cortex (pIC)-BLA, connections produces a long-lasting decrease in spatial avoidance.

Contextuality is a hallmark feature of the quantum theory that captures its incompatibility with any noncontextual hidden-variable model. The Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ)-type paradoxes are proofs of contextuality that reveal this incompatibility with deterministic logical arguments. However, the GHZ-type paradox whose events can be included in the fewest contexts and that brings the strongest nonclassicality remains elusive.
