Relaxation of photoexcited hot carriers beyond multitemperature models: General theory description verified by experiments on Pb/Si(111)
The equilibration of electronic carriers in metals after excitation by an ultrashort laser pulse provides an important class of nonequilibrium phenomena in metals and allows measuring the effective electron-phonon coupling parameter. Since the observed decay of the electronic distribution is governe...
