We discuss recent progress in ultrafast x-ray diffraction, addressing photoinduced structural dynamics in ferroelectric superlattices and polar molecular crystals. Elongations of coupled phonon modes affecting ferroelectric polarizations and structural changes connected with the solvation of molecular dipoles are determined quantitatively.
