Energy relaxation and thermalization of hot electrons in quantum wires.
We develop a theory of energy relaxation and thermalization of hot carriers in clean quantum wires. Our theory is based on a controlled perturbative approach for large excitation energies and emphasizes the important roles of the electron spin and finite temperature. Unlike in higher dimensions, relaxation in one-dimensional electron liquids requires three-body collisions and is much faster for...
متن کاملHot adsorbate-induced retardation of the internal thermalization of nonequilibrium electrons in adsorbate-covered metal nanoparticles.
Femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy has been used to investigate the electron-electron scattering dynamics in sulfate-covered gold nanoparticles of 2.5 and 9.2 nm in diameter. We observe an unexpected retardation of the absolute internal thermalization time compared to bulk gold, which is attributed to a negative feedback by the vibrationally excited sulfate molecules. These hot adsor...
متن کاملHot electrons and electron-phonon coupling in a cylindrical nanoshell.
We use a standard model for the low-temperature electron-phonon interaction in metals to calculate the rate of thermal energy transfer between electrons and acoustic phonons in suspended metallic nanoshells. The electrons are treated as three-dimensional and noninteracting, whereas the vibrational modes are that of an thin cylindrical elastic shell of radius R with a free surface and thickness ...
متن کاملInvestigation of Hot Electrons and Hot Phonons Generated within an AlN/GaN High Electron Mobility Transistor
We review our recent results obtained on an AlN/GaN-based high-electron-mobility transistor. The temperature of the electrons drifting under a relatively-high electric field is significantly higher than the lattice temperature (i.e., the hot electrons are generated). These hot electrons are produced through the Fröhlich interaction between the drifting electrons and long-lived longitudinal-opti...
متن کاملRole of adsorbates on dynamics of hot-electron (type I and II) thermalization within gold nanoparticles
Early stages of hot-electron thermalization in small gold nanoparticles wrapped in an adsorbates shell have been investigated by femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy. Type-I hot electrons thermalize in 800 fs (to form type-II hot electron) either by scattering with cold conduction band electrons or by chemical interface scattering with adsorbates shell. Type-II hot electrons redistribu...
