Femtosecond laser interaction with metallic tungsten and nonequilibrium electron and lattice temperatures

High-intensity, 75 fs optical pulses have been applied to observe multiphoton and thermally enhanced photoemission from a tungsten metal surface. Experimental results suggest the presence of anomalous heating, a transient nonequilibrium temp. difference between the electrons and lattice. Pump-probe...

Zusammenfassung:High-intensity, 75 fs optical pulses have been applied to observe multiphoton and thermally enhanced photoemission from a tungsten metal surface. Experimental results suggest the presence of anomalous heating, a transient nonequilibrium temp. difference between the electrons and lattice. Pump-probe measurements indicate an electron--phonon energy relaxation time of several hundred femtoseconds. 11 ref.--AA
