Spatio-Temporal Electron Propagation Dynamics in Au/Fe/MgO(001) in Nonequilibrium: Revealing Single Scattering Events and the Ballistic Limit

Understanding the microscopic spatio-temporal dynamics of nonequilibrium charge carriers in heterosystems promises optimization of process and device design towards desired energy transfer. Hot electron transport is governed by scattering with other electrons, defects, and bosonic excitations. Analy...
