Abstract
The carrier intraband relaxation in CdS is studied with subpicosecond time resolution by using luminescence upconversion. The cooling of a highly dense plasma (0.3–1.4 × 1018 cm-3) is significantly slowed down with respect to the calculated energy- loss rates predicted by the dominant1 long- range Fröhlich interaction involving longitudinal optical (LO) phonons. Even under the assumption of strong screening2,3 of the carrier-LO-phonon interaction, the measured relaxation times cannot be reproduced.
