Abstract
We observe coherent phonons of 3.6 THz and 47 GHz oscillation frequencies of multiferroic LuMnO3 using femtosecond IR spectroscopy. Both coherent phonons disappear below TN as antiferromagnetically aligned spins strongly coupled with lattice vibration. This disappearance of phonons is related with the dynamic spin-phonon coupling and the giant magneto-elastic coupling near TN.
