摘要
Femtosecond transient transmission pump-probe technique was used to investigate exciton dynamics in a nominally undoped GaN thin film at room temperature. An exciton ionization time of 100-250 femtoseconds was observed by the time-resolved pump-probe measurement. A comparison experiment with pre-excited free carriers also confirmed the observation of the exciton ionization process in bulk GaN. (C) 2002 American Institute of Physics.
