Using two laser pulses of femtosecond duration we excite a diatomic mo
lecule (I-2) to a dissociative state where the wave function is locali
zed around two internuclear separations. The structure of the wave fun
ction is controlled by the relative amplitude and the temporal separat
ion of the exciting laser pulses. A delayed intense probe pulse measur
es the square of the wave function as a function of the internuclear s
eparation \Psi(R)\(2) by Coulomb exploding the molecule. We report a r
esolution of similar to 2 Angstrom in the internuclear range similar t
o 6-15 Angstrom. We discuss how intense femtosecond laser pulses provi
de a different approach to time-resolved photochemistry.
