We use time-resolved MeV transmission electron diffraction experiments to study the incoherent structural response of nanoscale materials after fs laser excitation. Experiments were carried out using the MeV Ultrafast Electron Diffraction (UED) facility recently established at SLAC [1]. UED@SLAC provides ultrashort <300fs electron pulses at relativistic energies (3-5 MeV), which we have used for precise measurements of the transient Debye-Waller-effect in different metal-insulator and metal-metal-heterostructures, highlighting the importance of interface [2] and transport effects.
