Abstract

Intense ultrashort laser pulses enable the generation of subpico-second X-ray pulses in the multi-kilovolt range of photon energies. These X-ray pulses have opened the door to ultrafast time-resolved X-ray spectroscopy. Here, we report on the use of time-resolved X-ray diffraction to study ultrafast laser-induced order-to-disorder transitions and large amplitude picosecond acoustic transients that accompany the phase transitions.
