Notes:
Picosecond laser pulses were utilized to generate shock waves in a cadmium selenide (CdSe) semiconductor. A pump-and-probe technique was used to study the shock pressure effects on the carriers in CdSe by measuring the photoluminescence emission. A blue shift was observed in the photoluminescence peak position under shock-wave loading. By varying the delay time of the probe pulse with respect to the pump pulse, a shock pressure profile in time was monitored. By analyzing the high-energy tail of electron-hole plasma photoluminescence spectra, the average hot-electron temperatures were deduced for both shocked and unshocked emission. Under shock loading conditions, an increase in the average hot-electron temperature was observed to remain over 20 ns.
