  • Abstract
    Time-resolved x-ray diffraction is utilized to visualize laser generated transient strain formation from nanometer-scaled laser-excited gold films into crystalline substrates. We directly invert the time-domain signals to reconstruct the spatio-temporal shape of the transient strain.
