We demonstrate the use of very strong static electric fields to improve the well-known techniques to state-select molecules in the electric deflector and to mixed-field orient them using laser pulses in combination with strong electric fields. These are important methods for molecular-frame imaging of molecular dynamics [1, 2]. For the state selection we developed a Stark deflector with a so-called b-type shape. Simulations of the new design predict a much stronger deflection and better state separation then previous Stark deflectors. In mixed-field orientation a strong static electrical field avoids nonadiabatic effects [3]. Therefore, we extended the idea of a two plate velocity map imaging spectrometer [4] to allow for strong electric fields up to 27 kV/cm. We will present its use in alignment and orientation experiments and disentangle the rotational motion of molecules in combined strong electric fields and laser pulses.
