The present paper is a review of the phenomena related to nonequilibrium electron relaxation in bulk and nano-scale metallic samples. The workable Two-Temperature Model (TTM) based on Boltzmann–Bloch–Peierls kinetic equation has been applied to study the ultra-fast (femto-second) electronic relaxation in various metallic systems. The advent of new ultra-fast (femto-second) laser technology and pump-probe spectroscopy has produced wealth of new results for micro- and nano-scale electronic technology. The aim of this paper is to clarify the TTM, conditions of its validity and nonvalidity, its modifications for nano-systems, to sum-up the progress, and to point out open problems in this field. We also give a phenomenological integro-differential equation for the kinetics of nondegenerate electrons that goes beyond the TTM.

Multiferroic hexagonal manganites ReMnO3studied by optics are reviewed. Their electronic structures were revealed by static linear and nonlinear spectra. Two transitions located at~1.7 eV and~2.3 eV have been observed and attributed to the interband transitions from the lower-lying Mn3+dxy/dx2-y2anddxz/dyzstates to the Mn3+d3z2-r2state, respectively. These so-called d-d transitions exhibit a blueshift as decreasing temperatures and an extra blueshift nearTN. This dramatic change indicates that the magnetic ordering seriously influences the electronic structure. On the other hand, the ultrafast optical pump-probe spectroscopy has provided the important information on spin-charge coupling and spin-lattice coupling. Because of the strongly correlation between electronic structure and magnetic ordering, the amplitude of the initial rising component inΔR/Rshows striking changes at the vicinity ofTN. Moreover, the coherent optical and acoustic phonons were observed on optical pump-probe spectroscopy. Both the amplitude and dephasing time of coherent phonons also exhibit significant changes atTN, which provide the evidence for spin-lattice interaction in these intriguing materials.

We present the results of nonlinear optical pump-probe experiments on photoactive yellow protein (PYP). We are able to completely bleach the 446 nm absorption peak of PYP by one-photon excitation using a cw argon laser. We calculate the corresponding index change and find it to be similar to that of bacteriorhodopsin. We also determine an upper limit to the two photon absorption cross-section of PYP by looking for bleaching of the 446 nm absorption peak under irradiation by femtosecond pulses at 820–910 nm. No TPA signal is observed.
