Popis: Here we report on detailed studies of the photoexcited carrier and collective mode dynamics in prototype quasi-1D charge density wave (CDW) systems K 0.3 MoO 3 and Rb 0.3 MoO 3 focusing on their low temperature and low excitation range. We show that the order parameter relaxation dynamics are inconsistent with the Rothwarf–Taylor model describing the relaxation of the coupled quasi-particle and high frequency phonon system in a system with a narrow gap in the density of states. Therefore we propose an alternative model that accounts for the photoexcited carrier relaxation phenomena commonly observed in CDW systems.
