Impact ionization in InSb probed by terahertz pump—terahertz probe spectroscopy

Picosecond carrier dynamics in indium antimonide (InSb) following excitation by below band gap broadband far-infrared radiation was investigated at 200 and 80 K. Using a THz-pump/THz-probe scheme with pump THz fields of 100 kV/cm and an intensity of 100 MW/cm[superscript 2], we observed carrier heat...
