We have considered the ballistic propagation of the 2D electron Wigner distribution, which is excited by an ultrashort optical pulse from a short-range impurity into the first quantized subband of a selectively-doped heterostructure with high mobility. Transient ionization of a deep local state into a continuum conduction c-band state is described. Since the quantum nature of the photoexcitation, the Wigner distribution over 2D plane appears to be an alternating-sign function. Due to a negative contribution to the Wigner function, the mean values (concentration, energy, and flow) demonstrate an oscillating transient evolution in contrast to the diffusive classical regime of propagation.
