Key points:• TG in optical range has been used to study
coherent phonons and thermal transport• To move to nano-scale need to reduce
grating period and hence the wavelength• LCLS provides unique opportunity
–> coherence and time resolution• Experimental requirements
–> split and delay of pump and probe
–> generation of overlapping beams• Generalized non-linear X-ray spectroscopy
