Summary
Coherent optical phonons are the lattice atoms vibrating in phase with each other over a macroscopic spatial region. With sub-10 fs laser pulses, one can impulsively excite the coherent phonons of a frequency up to 50 THz, and detect them optically as a periodic modulation of electric susceptibility. The generation and relaxation processes depend critically on the coupling of the phonon mode to photoexcited electrons. Real-time observation of coherent phonons can thus offer crucial insight into the dynamic nature of the coupling, especially in extremely nonequilibrium conditions under intense photoexcitation.
