Abstract
We present a nanosecond pump-and-probe optical study of wurtzite GaN u nder the excitation condition that the carrier-longitudinal optical ph onon scattering does not contribute to the energy relaxation process. The delay time after which the isothermal condition is achieved is fou nd to be similar to 50 ns. This comes from both the phonon structure i n GaN and the fact that the carrier cooling depends on excess kinetic energies of carriers. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science S.A.
