We have investigated the coherent phonon in CuI thin films deposited on Au films with nanoscale roughness. It is found that the coherent transverse optical (TO) phonon in the CuI thin film on the Au film is dramatically enhanced, whereas that in the CuI thin film without the Au film is hardly observed. The enhancement of the coherent TO phonon in the CuI thin film on the Au film will originate from...
