The critical role of hot carrier cooling in optically excited structural transitions
Abstract The hot carrier cooling occurs in most photoexcitation-induced phase transitions (PIPTs), but its role has often been neglected in many theoretical simulations as well as in proposed mechanisms. Here, by including the previously ignored hot carrier cooling in real-time time-dependent densit...
