Polarization-induced phase shift of ultrafast photocurrents

Shift and injection currents are known to occur for linearly and circularly polarized optical excitations of semiconductors, respectively. Here, we show with room-temperature experiments that for excitation of discrete transitions the frequency dynamics of the coherent polarization changes this phas...
