Illuminating flatland : nonlinear and nonequilibrium optical properties of graphene

In this thesis the nonlinear and nonequilibrium properties of graphene are experimentally investigated using degenerate four--wave mixing and time--resolved pump--probe spectroscopy. High quality exfoliated natural graphite and large area epitaxial graphene on silicon carbide are investigated with f...
