We investigate the relaxation of photogenerated carriers in radiation-damaged silicon on sapphire using a collinear optical-pump-terahertz-probe arrangement. Carrier densities greater than 10(20) cm(-3) are injected using 400 nm, 100 fs pump pulses, and the change in transmission of the terahertz-probe pulse is measured as a function of pump-probe delay. The time-dependent carrier density is deduced using a thin-film Drude model. A carrier mobility of 422 +/- 17 cm(2)/V s is measured, and single-exponential carrier relaxation times of 4 ps at low fluence and 6 ps at high fluence are observed.
