“…Probing was implemented with a continuous wave (cw) HeNe laser (Uniphase, CA), wavelength 632.8 nm, power 5 mW, and radius 60 lm. 3,[20][21][22] The probe beam offset x 0 could be varied from 100 lm up to 250 lm, and according to previous investigations 3, [20][21][22] the surface-to-probe distance (Fig. 1, inset) was set to x 0 ¼ 100 lm.…”
