SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION Supplementry Figure 4: Excittion-dependent photo-conductnce for 2 x 10 10 sored photons/cm 2 per pulse, which corresponds to chrge crrier density of 8 x 10 14 cm -3. This is higher thn the fluence of 8 x 10 8 sored photons/cm 2 per pulse shown in Figure 1 in the min text. Supplementry Figure 5: Photo-conductnce s function of time fter excittion t 753 nm (1.65 ev) for different fluences of sored photons, where 8 x 10 8 sored photons/cm 2 per pulse corresponds to the dt presented in Figure 1 nd. The mximum height of the signls represents φσμ the product of genertion yield nd moility (sum of electrons nd holes). These results show tht the peking φσμ for exciting t 1.65 ev is even more pronounced t fluence of 2 x 10 8 sored photons/cm 2 (8 x 10 12 chrge crriers cm -3 ) per pulse. At this density, the effective moility is in excess of 150 cm 2 /Vs.

Note tht the solute vlues otined with PR-TRMC mesurements () re lower thn those otined with photon-induced TRMC (). Considering tht moilities mesured with photon-induced TRMC () re similr to those otined with THz spectroscopy, 1 it seems unlikely tht using different frequencies chnges the mesured moility sustntilly. Insted, the reltively lower moility otined with the PR-TRMC mesurements could stem from n overestimtion of the numer of chrge crriers (see experimentl section). Nevertheless, this does not ffect the temperture-dependent moility trend.
