摘要
Pump-probe measurements with a subwavelength spatial resolution of 355 nm and a temporal resolution of 130 fs have been performed in a multiple quantum well sample at T=8 K. A solid immersion lens was used to increase the spatial resolution to 0.41 . lambda and the effective numerical aperture to 1.23, demonstrating that the limit of conventional microscopy has been surpassed. The lateral carrier transport was investigated on subpicosecond timescales. (C) 1999 American Institute of Physics. [S0003-6951(99)03113-7].
