| Popis: | Ultrafast optical responses were investigated using a fs laser system on a layered perovskite-type cobalt oxide, La1.5Sr0.5CoO4 with a checkerboard-type charge ordering. To investigate the spatial variation of the photoexcited state, we measured the transient changes of three independent optical quantities, i.e., transmittance, reflectivity, and backside reflectivity, as well as their fluence dependence at 0.25 eV. Using the numerical calculations based on Maxwell's equations, we calculated not only the dielectric constant but also the decay length of the photoexcited region (\(L\)) and analyzed the real-space dynamics of the photoexcited area in terms of the fluence and time dependence of \(L\). With the above information on the time dependence of \(L\) and Kramers–Kronig analysis, we numerically calculated the transient optical conductivity spectra, which showed instantaneous formation of a polaron-like absorption peak in the mid-infrared region. A 10 fs pump–probe reflection measurement revealed that t... |
