摘要
Transient reflectivity characteristics for epitaxial Ge1-xSix (x = 0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.25) alloys have been measured at lambda = 0.575-mu-m, using 2ps pump and probe pulses with photogenerated carrier densities up to 10(19) cm-3. For all x we are able to separately determine negative (free carrier) and positive (lattice heating) contributions to the reflectivity change; the relative contributions of the latter are found to increase with increasing x. The evolution of the free carrier part is dominated by carrier-temperature-dependent diffusion.
