(author) We report on investigations of optical generation of carriers in Si nanocrystals embedded in SiO2 matrix by time-resolved induced absorption technique. Results obtained for excitation below and above twice the bandgap energy h??<?2Eg and h??>?2Eg show very similar decay characteristics (within ?resolution ? 100 fs). When intensity of the signal...
