We present the first direct studies of photoinduced Cooper-pair breaking and subsequent superconducting state recovery dynamics by means of femtosecond time-resolved optical-pump terahertz probe spectroscopy focusing on the superconducting state recovery dynamics in MgB 2. The superconducting state recovery proceeds on the timescale of several hundred picoseconds and shows a strong temperature dependence. In particular, upon increasing the temperature the recovery time first decreases, reaches a minimum, followed by a quasi-divergence upon further increasing the temperature towards Tc. Moreover, the recovery time shows virtually no intensity dependence, even though the photoexcitation fluence is changed by over an order of magnitude. This suggests that pair recovery is goverend by a phonon-bottleneck mechanism, where the lifetime of high energy phonons (ℏω > 2Δ) is governed by their anharmonicity.

AbstractOptical pump-probe measurements were performed on planar slab waveguides containing silicon nanocrystals in an attempt to measure optical gain from photo-excited silicon nanocrystals. Two experiments were performed, one with a continuous-wave probe beam and a pulsed pump beam, giving a time resolution of approximately 25 ns, and the other with a pulsed pump and probe beam, giving a time resolution of approximately 10 ps. In both cases the intensity of the probe beam was found to be attenuated by the pump beam, with the attenuation increasing monotonically with increasing pump power. Time-resolved measurements using the first experimental arrangement showed that the probe signal recovered its initial intensity on a time scale of 45-70 μs, a value comparable to the exciton lifetime in Si nanocrystals. These data are shown to be consistent with an induced absorption process such as confined carrier absorption. No evidence for optical gain was observed.
