Electron scattering dynamics with anisotropic excitation — •Marius Weber, Kai Leckron, and Hans Christian Schneider — University of Kaiserslautern, Kaiserslautern, Germany
Ultrafast electron scattering plays an important role in different systems with itinerant carriers such as optically excited ferromagnets or transition metal dichalcogenides. While momentum-dependent electron scattering has been studied extensively in optically excited semiconductors [1,2], these studies were confined to isotropic parabolic model band structures. Here, we calculate electronic dynamics at the level of Boltzmann scattering integrals with and without non-Markovian effects, which lead to a broadening of the energy conservation condition following the approach of Ref. [1]. We study how broadening effects influence the dynamics, in particular the behavior of the kinetic energy. In order to treat electronic dynamics in metallic systems, we have developed a numerical solution for the dynamical distribution function depending on the momentum vector that is applicable to more realistic band structures. Our approach leads to well-converged dynamics and is capable of treating up to 303 k-points in the three-dimensional Brillouin zone. In a first step we investigated the behavior of anisotropic excitation conditions in a single band.
