The relaxation dynamics of hot carriers in silicon (100) is studied via a novel holistic approach based on phase-resolved transient absorption spectroscopy with few-cycle optical pulses. After excitation by a sub-5 fs light pulse, strong electron-phonon coupling leads to an ultrafast momentum relaxation with time constant of 10 fs. The thermalization of the hot carriers occurs on a time constant of 150 fs, visible in the temporal evolution of the collision time as extracted from the Drude model. We find an increase of the collision time from 3 fs for the shortest timescales with a saturation at approximately 18 fs. Moreover, the optical effective mass of the hot carrier ensemble evolves on ultrafast timescales as well, with a bi-exponential decrease from 0.7 $m_e$ to about 0.125 $m_e$ and time constants of 4 fs and 58 fs. The presented information on the electron mass dynamics as well as the momentum-, energy-, and collision-scattering times with unprecedented time resolution is important for all hot carrier optoelectronic devices.
Femtosecond carrier recombination in PbI2 is measured using tabletop high-harmonic extreme ultraviolet (XUV) transient absorption spectroscopy and ultrafast electron diffraction. XUV absorption from 45 eV to 62 eV measures transitions from the iodine
Silicon nanoparticles have the promise to surpass the theoretical efficiency limit of single-junction silicon photovoltaics by the creation of a phonon bottleneck, a theorized slowing of the cooling rate of hot optical phonons that in turn reduces th
$mathrm{MoTe_2}$ has recently been shown to realize in its low-temperature phase the type-II Weyl semimetal (WSM). We investigated by time- and angle- resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (tr-ARPES) the possible influence of the Weyl points in the ele
