Recent photoemission experiments call for a detailed study of the temporal surface dynamics on silicon surfaces. We use a model for the phonon based short-time dynamics where the electron-phonon interaction of both bulk and surface states is described by Density-Functional-Theory (DFT). The surface band structure of Si(100), including the surface states Dup and Ddown, is calculated using a slab geometry in local density approximation (LDA). For the bands contributing to the surface dynamics, the corresponding Kohn-Sham wave functions are used to compute electron phonon coupling matrix elements. Density matrix formalism is used to evaluate the population dynamics of excited conduction band states. Different theoretical approaches, such as Markovian and time-convolutionless (TCL) methods are compared.
