The laser beam was adjusted in his position to overlap better with the ions.

Ion beam is destroyed at scraper position 1VO 6 mm and 2VO 4 mm; the laser beam looses half its power at 1VO 6mm and 2VO 4 mm.

EDIT: In the Schottky spectrum, we saw a stronger "cut" from the laser beam with slightly different settings in the TEM system. Later today, we could maybe finetune the ion-laser overlap while observing this "cut".
