Ultrafast Electron Diffraction (UED) has lately become one of the most promising techniques to directly provide insights into fundamental dynamics in solids at the microscopic level and on the pico- to subpicosecond timescale [1,2].
In this contribution we present our UED-setup to reach a high spatial and temporal resolution below 200 fs [3]. Additionally we present first results of time-resolved diffraction experiments on nanocrystalline graphene [4] and discuss the possibility of time-resolved observations of out-of-plane dynamics in such materials [5]. Finally we compare our results to results from CVD-graphene [6].
