(Bi1−xSbx)2Te3 is a series of topological insulators with the electronic properties tunable by varying the ratio between Bi and Sb. To get a better understanding of the inter-band scattering processes we performed mid-infrared-pump terahertz-probe spectroscopic measurements on three different (Bi1−xSbx)2Te3 compounds, in which the Fermi energy was chemically tuned by varying x to be in the conduction-, valence-band, and bulk bandgap, respectively. The non-equilibrium response was studied systematically for pump energies above and below the bandgap of 200 meV and as a function of temperature down to 5 K. Our measurements show evident differences in the pump-probe response in the different compounds, which are compared with different theoretical scenarios.
