AB - The behavior of hot carriers in metal-halide perovskites (MHPs) present avaluable foundation for understanding the details of carrier-phonon coupling inthe materials as well as the prospective development of highly efficient hotcarrier and carrier multiplication solar cells. Whilst the carrier populationdynamics during cooling have been intensely studied, the evolution of the hotcarrier properties, namely the hot carrier mobility, remain largely unexplored.To address this, we introduce a novel ultrafast visible pump - infrared push -terahertz probe spectroscopy (PPP-THz) to monitor the real-time conductivitydynamics of cooling carriers in methylammonium lead iodide. We find a decreasein mobility upon optically depositing energy into the carriers, which istypical of band-transport. Surprisingly, the conductivity recovery dynamics areincommensurate with the intraband relaxation measured by an analogousexperiment with an infrared probe (PPP- IR), and exhibit a negligibledependence on the density of hot carriers. These results and the kineticmodelling reveal the importance of highly-localized lattice heating on themobility of the hot electronic states. This collective polaron-latticephenomenon may contribute to the unusual photophysics observed in MHPs andshould be accounted for in devices that utilize hot carriers.
