Using the Born-Oppenheimer approximation we calculate potential energy surfaces of photoexcited Bismuth-bulk. We determine phonon frequencies and potential anharmonicities for the case of high density of excited carriers. In particular, we focus on the phonon modes A1g and Eg. We find strong softening of the A1g-frequency for increasing excited carrier density. Furthermore, from the analysis of the lattice motion upon excitation we show that there is a coupling between the A1g and Eg modes, which is consistent with recent experimental findings.
