Abstract
- Laser-assisted photoemission from a solid is considered within a numerically exactly solvable one-dimensional model of a crystal. The effect of the inelastic scattering and of the finite duration of the pump pulse on the photoelectron dynamics is elucidated. The phenomenological result that the photoexcited wave packet moves with the group velocity dE/dk and traverses on average the distance equal to the mean free path is found to hold for energies far from the spectral gaps of the final state band structure. On the contrary, close to a spectral gap the photoelectron is found to move during the excitation by the pump pulse with a velocity higher than the group velocity.<br />5 pages, 3 figures
