Abstract: There has long been a desire for ultrashort X-ray diffraction to study structures that change in real time. Large synchotron sources can generate X-ray pulses lasting less than a picosecond. Now, advances in high-power lasers have brought sub-picosecond X-ray diffraction to the laboratory bench — to probe the physics of ultrasonic waves in a semiconductor crystal.
