The group V transition metal dichalcogenide VSe₂ shows a charge density wave (CDW) transition at 110 K with (4×4×3) charge ordering in its bulk form. In contrast, recent experiments on monolayer (ML) VSe₂ have shown an enhanced transition at ∼ 140 K with very different charge ordering. Moreover, this transition is accompanied by a full gapping of the Fermi surface. Here, we have used time and angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (TR-ARPES) to understand the electron dynamics in ML VSe₂ above and below the transition temperature. We have also modelled the ARPES intensity using a modified BCS self energy and density functional theory calculated bare bands. We find the gapped phase vanishes upon pumping and takes unusually long time to recover (more than 10 ps). This behaviour points toward a hot electron relaxation bottleneck coupled with an electronic phase transition in this sample.
