Ultrafast electron diffraction experiments have offered intriguing insights into atomic-scale structural dynamics in bulk media on their fundamental time scales [1]. In contrast, comparable time-resolved studies in quasi two-dimensional systems such as surfaces and interfaces remain challenging, despite recent accomplishments [2, 3]. Here, we introduce ultrafast low-energy electron diffraction (ULEED) in transmission as a powerful new tool for ultrafast surface science [4]. In particular, we present a detailed experimental and theoretical account of the relaxation of a polymer superstructure on free-standing graphene from a highly out-of-equilibrium state. Finally, first data from a ULEED experimental setup operated in back-reflection is presented.
