Abstract

Results are presented from ensemble Monte Carlo simulations of the relaxation of photoexcited electrons and holes. The results are compared directly with three types of femtosecond optical experiments: transient absorption saturation, pump and continuum probe, and tunable pump-probe experiments. For these experiments we find that intervalley scattering has a dominant effect for the first several hundred femtoseconds, and that electron-electron scattering is only important at later times.
