The screening of longitudinal optical phonons by plasmons is investigated by time-resolved visible pump-mid-infrared probe transmission measurements in a series of light to highly doped n-type GaAs wafers. The reduced relaxation of photogenerated carriers is strongly correlated to the coupling between longitudinal optical phonons and background plasmons as suggested by the variation of the phonon strength over the doping range. The critical plasmon density at which the optical phonons were effectively screened, thereby reducing the carrier relaxation, was determined to be N-c similar to 1x10(18) cm(-3).

Integrated piezoresistive sensors for atomic force-guided scanning Hall probe microscopy
BROOK, ALEX J; BENDİNG, SJ; PINTO, JONATHAN; Oral, Ahmet; RİTCHİE, DAVİD; BEERE, H; HENİNİ, M; SPRİNGTHORPE, A (AIP Publishing, 2003-05-19)
We report the development of an advanced sensor for atomic force-guided scanning Hall probe microscopy whereby both a high mobility heterostructure Hall effect magnetic sensor and an n-Al0.4Ga0.6As piezoresistive displacement sensor have been integrated in a single III-V semiconductor cantilever. This allows simple operation in high-vacuum/variable-temperature environments and enables very high magnetic and topographic resolution to be achieved simultaneously. Scans of magnetic induction and topography of a...
Measurement of differential top-quark-pair production cross sections in pp collisions at root s=7 TeV
Chatrchyan, S.; et. al. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2013-03-01)
Normalised differential top-quark-pair production cross sections are measured in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV at the LHC with the CMS detector using data recorded in 2011 corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb(-1). The measurements are performed in the lepton + jets decay channels (e + jets and mu + jets) and the dilepton decay channels (e(+)e(-), mu(+)mu(-), and mu(+/-)e(-/+)). The t (t) over bar differential cross section is measured as a function of kinematic properties ...
Measurement of the inclusive 3-jet production differential cross section in proton-proton collisions at 7 TeV and determination of the strong coupling constant in the TeV range
Khachatryan, V.; et. al. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2015-05-01)
This paper presents a measurement of the inclusive 3-jet production differential cross section at a proton-proton centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5 fb(-1) collected with the CMS detector. The analysis is based on the three jets with the highest transverse momenta. The cross section is measured as a function of the invariant mass of the three jets in a range of 445-3270 GeV and in two bins of the maximum rapidity of the jets up to a value of 2. A compari...
Measurements of differential cross sections for associated production of a W boson and jets in proton-proton collisions at root s=8 TeV
Khachatryan, V.; et. al. (American Physical Society (APS), 2017-03-01)
Differential cross sections for a W boson produced in association with jets are measured in a data sample of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV recorded with the CMS detector and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.6 fb(-1). The W bosons are identified through their decay mode W ->mu nu. The cross sections are reported as functions of jet multiplicity, transverse momenta, and the scalar sum of jet transverse momenta ( H-T) for different jet multiplicities. Distributions...
Measurement of the triple-differential dijet cross section in proton-proton collisions at root s=8 TeV and constraints on parton distribution functions
Sirunyan, A. M.; et. al. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2017-11-01)
A measurement is presented of the triple-differential dijet cross section at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV using 19.7 fb(-1) of data collected with the CMS detector in proton-proton collisions at the LHC. The cross section is measured as a function of the average transverse momentum, half the rapidity separation, and the boost of the two leading jets in the event. The cross section is corrected for detector effects and compared to calculations in perturbative quantum chromodynamics at next-to-leading ord...
