Observation of Coherent Local Surface Phonons on Clean GaAs Surfaces

  • Conference paper
Book cover Ultrafast Phenomena X

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Chemical Physics ((CHEMICAL,volume 62))

Abstract

Coherent phonons localized to the top 4 atomic layers of the surface are generated by a single 35 fs laser pump pulse and detected by measuring the second-harmonic generated by a time-delayed 35 fs probe pulse.
