Abstract
Time-resolved x-ray diffraction techniques are used to visualize atomic-scale displacements within the unit cell of the nanoscale ferroelectric PbTiO3. A picosecond all-optically-induced polarization modulation is observed, associated with a large-amplitude carrier-induced increase in the polarization.
