The damping time of coherent longitudinal acoustic phonons in free standing gold membranes is measured by high speed asnchronous optical sampling (ASOPS) [1], a modified femtosecond pump probe spectroscopy method. We investigate the frequency dependence of the fundamental thickness mode lifetime by varying the membrane thickness. In addition, we study the influence of the surface roughness on the mode lifetimes. Temperature dependent measurements allow us to seperate the intrinsic damping mechanisms from surface contributions. The free-standing membranes were produced by thermal evaporating and where subsequently placed on a TEM-grid by a floating technique.
