    Fig 7 illustrates the option of mounting the detector behind the back mirror of a laser cavity for continuous monitoring. Beam losses further down the beam path, caused e.g. by a deterioration of optics, are not mapped in this type of arrangement. As an alternative, detectors can be used for sporadic measurements at the laser system output.
