Using a nonequilibrium implementation of the extended dynamical mean field theory (EDMFT) we simulate the relaxation of a photo-excited doped Mott insulator. We consider the t-J model and focus on the interplay between the charge- and spin-dynamics in different excitation and doping regimes. The appearance of string states after a weak photo excitation manifests itself in a nontrivial scaling of the relaxation time with the exchange coupling. Moreover, we observe a correlated oscillatory evolution of the kinetic energy and spin-spin correlation function, which is a direct consequence of a strong spin-charge coupling. A strong excitation of the system, on the other hand, suppresses the spin correlations and results in a relaxation that is controlled by hole scattering. Finally, we propose a pump-probe setup, which allows to directly observe oscillations in the optical conductivity originating from string states.
