▎ 摘  要

We present a pump probe experiment on graphene, which reveals a pronounced dependence of the pump-induced transmission on the angle between pump and probe polarization. It reflects a strong anisotropy of the pump-induced occupation of photogenerated carriers in momentum space. Within 150 fs after excitation, an isotropic carrier distribution is established. The experiments are well described by microscopic modeling, which identifies carrier-phonon scattering to be the main relaxation mechanism giving rise to an isotropic carrier distribution.
