摘要
A rf photocathode electron gun is used as an electron source for ultrafast time-resolved pump-probe electron diffraction. The authors observed single-shot diffraction patterns from a 160 nm Al foil using the 5.4 MeV electron beam from the Gun Test Facility at the Stanford Linear Accelerator. Excellent agreement with simulations suggests that single-shot diffraction experiments with a time resolution approaching 100 fs are possible. (c) 2006 American Institute of Physics.
