In this letter, we present ultrafast pump-probe measurements of the supported graphene on quartz for a range of pump fluences that enable us to observe both decreased and enhanced probe transmission regimes on a femtosecond timescale. At a critical pump fluence, we observe a 10-fold decrease in the relaxation time constant which is correlated to fluence dependent transition from a bi-exponential to a single exponential decay pattern of the measured differential transmission. This suggests a mitigation of the hot phonon bottleneck that compromises the performance of graphene based devices.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-08-02T19:49:06.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "hot phonon bottleneck mitigation", "supported graphene", "observation", "pump fluence", "enhanced probe transmission regimes" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
