Abstract
Electron-phonon coupling plays a central role in describing the energy relaxation dynamics of solids excited by ultrafast laser pulses. It depends on electronic and phononic properties in different ways for different metals. In many calculations of the electron-phonon coupling parameter, the phonons are assigned a secondary role. In this work, we study the influence of the maximum phonon energy on the electron-phonon coupling parameter within the framework of the Debye model. We find a large increase of the coupling parameter with the Debye energy for all considered metals.
