Abstract

We report on our investigation of time-resolved carrier dynamics in a Hg-based high-temperature superconducting film (Hg-Ba-Ca-Cu-O), using optical excitation and THz probing. The observed picosecond time-scale photoresponse suggests the material’s potential applications for high-speed photodetectors.
