  • Ultrafast transport and relaxation of hot plasmonic electrons in metal-dielectric heterostructures

    摘要: Owing to the ultrashort timescales of ballistic electron transport, relaxation dynamics of hot nonequilibrium electrons is conventionally considered local. Utilizing propagating surface plasmon-polaritons (SPs) in metal-dielectric heterostructures, we demonstrate that both local (relaxation) and nonlocal (transport) hot electron dynamics contribute to the transient optical response. The data obtained in two distinct series of pump-probe experiments demonstrate a strong increase in both nonthermal electron generation ef?ciency and nonlocal relaxation timescales at the SP resonance. We develop a simple kinetic model incorporating a SP excitation, where both local and nonlocal electron relaxation in metals are included, and analyze nonequilibrium electron dynamics in its entirety in the case of collective electronic excitations. Our results elucidate the role of SPs in nonequilibrium electron dynamics and demonstrate rich perspectives of ultrafast plasmonics for tailoring spatiotemporal distribution of hot electrons in metallic nanostructures.

  • Nonequilibrium electron dynamics in pump-probe spectroscopy: Role of excited phonon populations

    摘要: We study the role of excited phonon populations in the relaxation rates of nonequilibrium electrons using a nonequilibrium Green’s function formalism. The transient modifications in the phononic properties are accounted for by self-consistently solving the Dyson equation for the electron and phonon Green’s functions. The pump-induced changes manifest in both the electronic and phononic spectral functions. We find that the excited phonon populations suppress the decay rates of nonequilibrium electrons due to enhanced phonon absorption. The increased phonon occupation also sets the nonequilibrium decay rates and the equilibrium scattering rates apart. The decay rates are found to be time dependent, and this is illustrated in the experimentally observed population decay of photoexcited Bi1.5Sb0.5Te1.7Se1.3.
