Abstract
We use transient Rayleigh scattering to study the thermalization of hot photoexcited carriers in single GaAs0.7Sb0.3/InP nanowire heterostructures. By comparing the energy loss rate in single core-only GaAs0.7Sb0.3 nanowires which do not show substantial hot carrier effects with the core-shell nanowires, we show that the presence of an InP shell substantially suppresses the longitudinal optical phonon emission rate at low temperatures which then leads to strong hot carrier effects.
