We investigate the ultrafast dynamics of coherent acoustic phonons in a photo-excited thin film. The excitation of the sample with an ultrashort laser pulse triggers coherent expansion and compression waves within the thin layer, which modulate the diffraction efficiency of an x-ray probe pulse on the picosecond timescale. A novel sample structure extinguishes the diffraction background from the laser deposited heat which is essential for repetition rates of 200kHz. The structure can be employed as ultrafast switchable mirror to shorten bursts of hard x-rays emitted from synchrotron storage rings. In addition, we study the in-plane sample dynamics by intersecting two optical pump pulses at the sample surface. The generated transient grating is characterized by x-ray reflection under grazing incidence and by reciprocal space mapping. The diffraction efficiency of the thermal grating can be tuned by the incoming laser fluence.
