1T-TiSe2 is a transition metal dichalcogenide, which has a charge density wave (CDW) state below a temperature of around 200 K, which may be due to an excitonic insulator mechanism and/or an Jahn-Teller effect. We studied optically excited carrier dynamics on ultrashort timescales in the CDW phase using time-resolved ARPES measurements and an effective two-band model including carrier-carrier Coulomb scattering. In the framework of this model we analyze the ultrafast response of this material to optical excitation, which is seen in the experiment. We show that carrier multiplication in the form of impact ionization is the most satisfactory explanation for the ultrafast redistribution of spectral weight observed in the ARPES measurements.
