| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have measured deep inner-shell 2p X-ray photoelectron diffraction (XPD) profiles from laser-aligned I2 molecules using X-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) pulses. By applying our molecular structure determination methodology to the XPD profiles, which were measured for I2 molecular ensembles with high degree of alignment, we have succeeded in determining the inter-nuclear distance of the I2 molecules in the electric field of Nd:YAG laser for the alignment.
Thus, it was revealed that the inter-nuclear distance in the laser field is elongated by ca. 0.3Å, compared to that of the equilibrium geometry of the ground state.
