The dynamic response of hybrid nanolayer systems composed of polyelectrolytes and gold colloids upon optical excitation is studied by ultrafast pump-probe spectroscopy. Relative intensity changes of transient absorption and reflection spectra are measured with light in the visible and near infrared region, providing information on the photoinduced dynamics within the structure. We investigate multilayer structures of gold colloid strata that are separated by several polyelectrolyte layers. The well pronounced Bragg peaks and Kiessig fringes from x-ray reflectivity measurements prove the excellent structural quality of the samples with clear separation of the gold particle layers. We observe intensity modulations due to coherently excited breathing modes in 10nm and 20nm gold particles. From the monitored transmission and reflection data we deduce the time-dependant values of the imaginary and real part of the dielectric function.
