Abstract
The X valley plays an important role in hot carrier transport in GaAs1,2. In this paper, we present pump-probe IR absorption measurements to determine the time evolution of electrons in the X6 valley, the upper limit of the X6→Γ6 scattering time, tXΓ, the energy separation of the X6 and X7 bands at their minima, Δ7−6, and the density of states effective mass of the X7 valley.
