Charge-density-waves (CDWs) exhibit a fascinating broken-symmetry ground state due to their intertwining with high-Tc superconductivity, their competition with Mott physics, and their interaction with magnetism. In this study we investigate the electronic and structural dynamics of the prototypical 2D CDW compound TbTe3 using XUV time-resolved ARPES and time-resolved X-ray diffraction. We observe a CDW-to-metal transition concomitant with a strongly fluence-dependent coherent oscillatory behavior of the electronic band gap and a simultaneous suppression of the periodic lattice distortion. Based on a Ginzburg-Landau-type approach we discuss how to extract the excited state energy potential of the order parameter and how to access the coupling strengths between different degrees of freedom on a quantitative level.
