Carrier confinement and bond softening in photoexcited bismuth films
Femtosecond pump-probe spectroscopy of bismuth thin films has revealed strong dependencies of reflectivity and phonon frequency on film thickness in the range of 25−40 nm. The reflectivity variations are ascribed to distinct electronic structures originating from strongly varying electronic temperat...
