摘要
We investigated ultrafast photogenerated carrier dynamics on a semi-insulating GaAs surface using femtosecond time-resolved core-level photoelectron spectroscopy. We observed a transient change in the surface potential where the Ga-3d core-level peak instantaneously shifted by similar to 350 meV toward a higher binding energy within 2 ps of a 100 fs laser irradiation. A comparison of the experimental results with numerical simulations based on a drift-diffusion model of a semi-insulating semiconductor revealed that the transient surface potential change was mainly due to the photo-Dember effect, whereby the large difference in the carrier diffusion between the electron and hole instantaneously induced a surface photovoltage.
