Unusual photocarrier and coherent phonon dynamics behaviors of layered PdSe2 unveiled by ultrafast spectroscopy of the edge surface

Layered materials exhibit different electronic and phonon properties along in-plane and out-of-plane directions;existing studies focus on their in-plane behaviors,and the influence of such anisotropies on the dynamics of photocarriers and phonons is unknown.Here,we fabricate layered PdSe2 crystals with flat edge surfaces and compare the time-resolved ultrafast spectro-scopies on their basal and edge surfaces.Pronounced differences in the transient reflection spectroscopies reveal the inconsistent photocarrier and phonon dynamics behaviors on the two surfaces:the slow hot carrier relaxation process is accelerated and the thermoelasticity-induced longitudinal coherent acoustic phonon oscillation completely vanishes on the edge surface,as com-pared with the basal surface.Theoretical analysis reveals that the inconsistent hot carrier dynamics originate from the anisotropic properties of low-energy phonons in PdSe2,and the absence of phonon oscillation on the edge surface results from the wavevector-limited sensitivity of acoustic B1u mode.Moreover,polarization-dependent spectroscopies indicate the diverse optical anisotropies béyond the in-plane of PdSe2.This work provides a new method to explore unique physical properties and modulate the optical anisotropy of layered materials.
