Ultrafast dynamics and photoluminescence of hot carriers in graphene — •Thomas Danz, Andreas Neff, Reiner Bormann, Sascha Schäfer, and Claus Ropers — IV. Physical Institute, University of Göttingen, 37077 Göttingen, Germany

The ultrafast dynamics of optically excited carriers in graphene can be monitored by pump-probe spectroscopy [1,2]. Furthermore, it was recently shown that the thermalization of hot carriers leads to photoluminescence at wavelengths far away from the exciting pump [3,4]. Here, we present the implementation of an experimental setup which combines transient spectroscopy with sub-15-fs temporal resolution with hot carrier photoluminescence detection under the same excitation conditions. With this approach, we aim at a comprehensive picture of the ultrafast carrier response and the disentanglement of the timescales underlying different relaxation pathways. First experimental results will be presented.
