For pump and probe experiments in x-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) facilities, accurate timing synchronization between short-wavelength femtosecond pulses from XFELs and short optical pulses from other light sources is required. For this purpose, the response time of a hydrothermal-method-grown ZnO is improved by over one order of magnitude via intentional iron ion doping. The fluorescence rise- and decay-time constants are measured to be less than 10 and 100 ps, respectively. Owing to its intense fluorescence even for single pulse XFEL excitation, the timing jitter of the soft x-ray pulse and timing electronics are evaluated to be less than 70 ps.
