Report summary

A paper in ACS Nano uses X-ray techniques to observe in real time the structural response of a quantum material after an ultrafast laser pulse strikes a crystal. Fabricating quantum devices often begins with deliberately damaging a crystal with ultrafast lasers, and this method could help clarify the process.
