Abstract
A novel technique is described for time-resolved Raman scattering for studying the dynamics of nonequilibrium excitations on a picosecond time scale. The generation and the decay of nonthermal LO phonons in GaAs is measured, and ps is obtained for the relaxation time of the phonon population at 77 K.
