Photoexcited carrier dynamics and impact-excitation cascade in graphene

In materials with strong electron-electron interactions, photoexcitation can trigger a cascade in which multiple particle-hole excitations are generated. Here we analyze the cascade of impact-excitation processes in graphene in which many hot carriers are generated by a single absorbed photon. We sh...
