Understanding nonequilibrium electron-phonon interactions at the microscopic level and on ultrafast timescales is a central goal of modern condensed matter physics. In collaboration with our theory collaborators from Institute of Physics in Zagreb (Croatia), we demonstrated that the photoexcited carrier density can act as a tunable parameter to enhance electron-phonon interactions under nonequilibrium conditions.
