متن کاملSubpicosecond Observation of Photoexcited Carrier Thermalization and Relaxation in InP-Based Films1
Advancements in microfabrication techniques and thin film growth have led to complex integrated photonic devices. The performance of these devices relies upon precise control of the band gap and absorption mechanisms in the thin film structures, as well as a fundamental understanding of the photoexcited carrier thermalization and relaxation processes. Using a pumpprobe technique, it is possible...
متن کاملElectron cooling and debye-waller effect in photoexcited bismuth.
By means of first principles calculations, we compute the effective electron-phonon coupling constant G(0) governing the electron cooling in photoexcited bismuth. G(0) strongly increases as a function of electron temperature, which can be traced back to the semimetallic nature of bismuth. We also use a thermodynamical model to compute the time evolution of both electron and lattice temperatures...

متن کاملPhotoexcited carrier relaxation dynamics in pentacene probed by ultrafast optical spectroscopy Influence of morphology on relaxation processes
We present a comparative study of ultrafast photoexcited state relaxation in pentacene single crystals and in pure and C60-doped pentacene films using optical pump-probe spectroscopy. The photoinduced absorption spectra in pentacene crystals is consistent with a dominant singlet–triplet fission decay channel for above-gap excitation. This decay channel is suppressed in thin films and even furth...
