(a) Measured photocurrent pattern of a prefocused beam by raster scanning the detector with a silicon lens. (b) Schematic setup for extracting the local self-mixing current. The solid/dashed circuitry is for probing photcurrent in M@D/M@S, respectively. Local photocurrent probed at (c) p1, (d) p2, and (e) p3.
