Coherent phonons can modify the wavefunction topology of quantum materials, yet the implications for electron dynamics remain to be addressed. The authors use time-dependent approaches to simulate the effect of coherent phonons, induced by strong terahertz laser field, on the electronic carrier dynamics in the topological insulator Zirconium Pentatelluride.
