Ultrafast Carrier Dynamics in HgPSe<sub>3</sub>
Two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) materials have garnered significant interest due to their unique properties, including strong light-matter interactions and enhanced excitonic effects [1]. Among these, layered vdW metal phosphorus trichalcogenides <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$(\text{MPX}_{3})$</tex> represent a fascinating class of perovskites, exhibiting peculiar magnetic, optoelectronic, and optical properties, with bandgap ranging from 1.3 to 3.5 eV [2], [3]. HgPSe3, is a vdW semiconductor with an optical gap near 2 eV at room temperature, characterized by high sensitivity to X-rays, effective responsivity in the visible spectrum and fast response times, positioning it as a promising candidate for fast broadband light detection [4], [5]. However, while its static optical properties are well studied, the material's non-equilibrium optical behavior remains unexplored.
