Fig. 6: Schematic experimental setup at the PHELIX laser.
From: Time-resolved study of holeboring in realistic experimental conditions
The focused laser is reflected by both plasma mirrors and interacts with the solid target at an incidence angle of 30°. A part of the reflected pulse is blocked by an aperture to reduce the fluence on the following optics. Therefore only the central part of the beam is collimated and imaged onto a FROG device.
