Direct Subpicosecond Measurement of Carrier Mobility of Photoexcited Electrons in Gallium Arsenide
Abstract
The mobility of hot electrons in gallium arsenide has been measured with subpicosecond time resolution, following injection by 2-eV femtosecond pulses. The mobility immediately after injection was measured to be less than 500 ${\mathrm{cm}}^{2}$/V.s, indicating efficient electron transfer into the satellite $L$ valleys. The electron mobility then rose to a quasiequilibrium value of 4200 ${\mathrm{cm}}^{2}$/V.s, limited by electron-hole scattering. The rise time was observed to be between 1.8 and 3.2 ps depending on injected carrier density.

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.
