Electron Diffusion in Metals Studied by Picosecond Ultrasonics
Abstract
We have studied the ultrasonic pulses that are generated when a picosecond light pulse is absorbed in a metallic film. The pulse shape is influenced by the distance that the hot electrons diffuse before losing their energy to the lattice. We show that this method can be used to test theories of the electron-phonon and electron-electron scattering rates. The results are in excellent agreement with a calculation in which the nonthermal character of the electron distribution is taken into account.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
