Recent experiments on germanium have indicated anomalously long energy relaxation times for dense electron-hole plasmas produced by intense optical picosecond pulses. Since the carriers relax primarily through optical-phonon emission it is suggested here that the long equilibration time is due to a relaxation bottleneck produced by a buildup of the optical-phonon population on a picosecond time scale. A comparison of theory and experiment gives excellent agreement.
