| Popis: | We present a reconstruction of the transverse acoustic phonon dispersion of germanium from femtosecond time-resolved x-ray diffuse scattering measurements at the Linac Coherent Light Source. We demonstrate an energy resolution of 0.3 meV with momentum resolution of 0.01 nm^-1 using 10 keV x-rays with a bandwidth of ~ 1 eV. This high resolution was achieved simultaneously for a large section of reciprocal space including regions closely following three of the principle symmetry directions. The phonon dispersion was reconstructed with less than three hours of measurement time, during which neither the x-ray energy, the sample orientation, nor the detector position were scanned. These results demonstrate how time-domain measurements can complement conventional frequency domain inelastic scattering techniques. Comment: 3 figures, 4 pages |
