摘要
The dynamics of differential transmission and reflectance spectra of porous silicon films was studied using the femtosecond excitation technique (tau approximate to 50 fs, (h) over bar omega(pump) = 2.34 eV) with supercontinuum probing ((h) over bar omega(probe) = 1.6-3.2 eV) and controlled time delay with a step of Delta t = 7 fs between the pump and probe pulses. A short-lived region of photoinduced bleaching was observed in the differential transmission spectra at wavelengths shorter than the pump wavelength. The excitation of coherent phonon states with a spectrum corresponding to nanocrystalline silicon with an admixture of a disordered phase was observed. The relaxation of electronic excitation was found to slow down in the spectral region where the amplitude of excited coherent vibrations was maximal. (C) 2000 MAIK "Nauka / Interperiodica".
