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 for mixed-field orientation [1]. These are important methods to provide ideal samples for molecular-frame imaging of molecular dynamics in the gas phase [2]. For the state selection we developed a Stark deflector with a two-rod geometry, similar to [3]. Experimental results confirm a stronger deflection and better state separation then previous stark deflectors. In mixed-field orientation a strong static electric field avoids nonadiabatic effects [4]. Therefore, we extended the idea of a two plate velocity map imaging spectrometer [5] to allow for strong electric fields up to 22 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.
