Strong Field Ionization of an atom or molecule is often described in a simple semi-classical picture: an electron is tunnel ionized by the intense laser field, accelerated away from the atom before to be driven back to the parent ion by the oscillating laser field. Elastic recollision with the parent ion is responsible for the apparition of a second plateau in the photoelectron angular distribution that contains diffraction features from which one can extract direct information about the molecular geometry. This effect is used in a technique called Laser Induced Electron Diffraction (LIED).

To image ultrafast molecular dynamics Laser Induced Electron Diffraction has recently emerged as a powerful tool. We performed LIED experiments in strongly aligned OCS molecules and obtain photoelectron distributions for different angles of the laser polarizations with respect to the molecular orientation. The observed large modifications of the well-known holographic and fork structure with the alignment axis orientation will be discussed.
