High-quality epitaxial nanowires (NWs) based on III-V semiconductors offer the possibility to fabricate ultrafast optical devices due to their direct bandgap and the high electron mobility. Contactless investigation of photoexcited carriers within single NWs is enabled by optical-pump THz-probe scanning near-filed optical microscopy (SNOM) experiment. Here we report on first THz-pump MIR-probe SNOM studies on Si-doped GaAs-InGaAs core-shell NWs utilizing THz radiation from the free-electron laser FELBE. The experiment was carried out with SNOM setup from Neaspec equipped with nanoFTIR module, where a broadband MIR source (5-15μm) serves as a probe. Upon intraband THz-pump (25μm) we observed a red shift of amplitude and phase of the NW plasma resonance, while control interband optical pumping (780nm) induced a blue shift of the resonance, and in both cases an exponential decay with a time constant of 4-5ps is seen. We attribute the blue shift to the contribution of photogenerated carriers. The red shift is assigned to the heating of the electrons in the conduction band and the subsequent increase of the effective mass in the nonparabolic Γ-valley due to high peak electric fields of THz pulses.
