Hot electron relaxation: A review of the two temperature model for ultrafast non-equilibrium phenomena in metals

The famous Two-Temperature Model (TTM) used extensively in the investigations of energy relaxation in photo excited systems originated in the seminal work of Kaganov et al. [Sov. J. Exp. Theor. Phys. 4, 173 (1957)]. The idea that with an ultrashort laser pulse a temporal (transient) state of electro...
