摘要
A new spectroscopy has been developed for the first direct probe of carrier-carrier scattering in materials. This spectroscopy provides spatial and energy resolution of the scattering process and has been used to investigate transport, scattering phenomena, and hot-carrier creation in two important metal-semiconductor systems. A theoretical treatment of this scattering spectroscopy yields excellent agreement with experimental spectra and provides direct evidence that carrier-carrier scattering is a dominant energy-loss mechanism in hot-carrier transport. © 1990 The American Physical Society.
