Hexagonal YbMnO(3) bulk polycrystals were prepared and studied by Raman scattering in the temperature range of 15-300 K. A total of 15 phonon modes of A(1), E(1) and E(2) type were identified. Some E(2) phonon modes showed anomalous temperature variations in frequency at T(N)∼80 K, suggesting a coupling between the spin and phonon systems below T(N). As another evidence of spin-phonon coupling, softening of an A(1)-phonon mode for the O-Mn vibration was observed at ∼T(N). Substitution of Mn by Al suggests this view.

Two-dimensional antiferromagnetic materials have attracted wide attention in both performance and application, which are of great significance for spin valves and next-generation magnetic random access memory devices. The spin-phonon coupling effect plays a crucial role in magnon dynamics. However, there is still a lack of research on the spin-phonon coupling effect of two-dimensional antiferromagnetic flakes.

Developing molecular spin technologies requires microscopic knowledge of their spin-dynamics. Calculation of phonon modes, phonon scattering and spin-phonon coupling for a dysprosocenium single-molecule magnet (SMM) give simulations of spin-dynamics that agree with experiment. They show that low-energy phonon scattering is a significant contribution to the high-performance of dysprosocenium SMMs.

With the help of a microscopic model and Green's function technique, we studied the multiferroic and phonon properties of the recently reported new multiferroic PrFeAlO (PFAO) compound, which belongs to the double perovskite ABB'O family. The magnetization decreases with the increase in temperature and disappears at the ferromagnetic Curie temperature TCFM. The polarization increases with the application of an external magnetic field, indicating strong magnetoelectric coupling and confirming the multiferroic behavior of PFAO.

We report the dynamic effects of magnetic inhomogeneity on the temperature evolution of the Raman modes in polycrystalline LaCoMnO (LCMO) films. The LCMO films were obtained via chemical solution deposition and annealed at different temperatures, 700, 800 and 900 °C. Temperature-dependent Raman spectroscopic studies uncover anomalous phonon energy behaviors, associated with strong spin-phonon couplings revealed even at ambient conditions.
