Hot carrier relaxation in GaN : LO phonon scattering and excitonic effects

Hot carrier relaxation has been studied in GaN using femtosecond time-resolved optical transmission and reflection. A non-thermal electron distribution with a pronounced "cut-off" at E-LO is observed for up to similar to 3 ps after photoexcitation. Monte Carlo simulations show that this be...
