Noble metal nanostructures enhance light absorption in semiconductors to produce plasmons, whose decay couples strongly with the generation of hot carriers and non-equilibrium phonons. We combine the use of time and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and femtosecond electron diffraction to investigate both charge carrier and phonon dynamics in a plasmonic metal/semiconductor heterostructure.

We grow epitaxial Au nanoislands on single-crystalline bulk WSe2. The presence of Au nanostructures causes a shortening of the Σ-exciton lifetime and an accelerated lattice heating of WSe2, which indicate interfacial charge transfer. Furthermore, we observe a non-equilibrium phonon distribution in WSe2 with sub-bandgap optical pumping, demonstrating increased sensitivity of the semiconductor to near infrared frequencies. The corresponding energy transfer scales nonlinearly with the incident laser fluence, owing to plasmonically-enhanced phonon excitation.
