abstract = {Terahertz and far-infrared electric and magnetic responses
of hexagonal piezomagnetic YMnO3 single crystals are
investigated. Antiferromagnetic resonance is observed in the
spectra of magnetic permeability mu(a) [H(omega) oriented
within the hexagonal plane] below the Neel temperature T-N.
This excitation softens from 41 to 32 cm(-1) upon heating
and finally disappears above T-N. An additional weak and
heavily-damped excitation is seen in the spectra of complex
dielectric permittivity epsilon(c) within the same frequency
range. This excitation contributes to the dielectric spectra
in both antiferromagnetic and paramagnetic phases. Its
oscillator strength significantly increases upon heating
toward room temperature, thus providing evidence of
piezomagnetic or higher-order couplings to polar phonons.
Other heavily-damped dielectric excitations are detected
near 100 cm(-1) in the paramagnetic phase in both epsilon(c)
and epsilon(a) spectra, and they exhibit similar temperature
behavior. These excitations appearing in the frequency range
of magnon branches well below polar phonons could remind
electromagnons, however their temperature dependence is
quite different. We have used density functional theory for
calculating phonon dispersion branches in the whole
Brillouin zone. A detailed analysis of these results and of
previously published magnon dispersion branches brought us
to the conclusion that the observed absorption bands stem
from phonon-phonon and phonon-paramagnon differential
absorption processes. The latter is enabled by strong
short-range in-plane spin correlations in the paramagnetic
phase.},
