Abstract
The generation of coherent phonons in polycrystalline bismuth film is observed by ultrafast time-resolved electron diffraction. The dynamics of the diffracted intensities from the (110), (202), and (024) lattice planes show pronounced oscillations at 130-150 GHz. The anisotropy in the energy transfer rate of coherent optical phonons is discussed.
