Experimental layout of DPM system shown on the right. PM 1 and PM 2 are on gimbal mounts for individual angle alignment. The beam waist was positioned along the optical axis by using the DM. The focal scan ranged from >60 mm upstream of PM 2 to >60 mm downstream of PM 2. The angle alignment of each PM was verified using a CW laser diode alignment beam. Corrections to the beam pointing were performed using motorized gimbal mounts. A schematic of the diagnostic used is shown on the left. The sizes are not to scale.
