Microscopic description of intraband absorption in graphene — •Faris Kadi1, Ermin Malic1, Torben Winzer1, Manfred Helm2, Fabian Göttfert2, Martin Mittendorff2, Stephan Winnerl2, and Andreas Knorr11Institut für Theoretische Physik, Nichtlineare Optik und Quantenelektronik, Technische Universität Berlin, Germany — 2Helmholtz- Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf, Dresden, Germany

We present a microscopic explanation for the occurrence of the controversially discussed transient negative differential transmission observed in optical pump-probe measurements in graphene [1]. Within the density matrix formalism we investigate the transient transmission with respect to optical interband as well as phonon-assisted intraband transitions. While interband processes yield a positive contribution due to absorption bleaching, we find intraband transitions to decrease differential transmission. Interestingly, in the low excitation regime, the phonon-assisted absorption prevails over the absorption bleaching resulting in the experimentally observed negative differential transmission [2]. The zero-crossing occurs within the first hundreds of femtoseconds and is followed by a recovery of the transmission spectrum on a picosecond timescale in a good agreement with experimental observations.
