Comment to ATC OPO input PZT replacement - beam profile characterization (Click here to view original report: 3547)

We tried to calculate the beam profile but it seems that the beam divergence going in does not match the beam divergence going out.

i.e. approaching the beam waist, the beam shrinks ~ 100 um diameter per screw hole, but going past, it increases only ~ 50 um per screw hole.

We will look again for the source of this odd behaviour.
