We explore the dynamic interplay between magnons and phonons in Fe3GeTe2 (FGT) single crystals using inelastic scanning tunneling spectroscopy (ISTS) at 35 mK. ISTS has been widely employed to investigate the inelastic scattering of hot carriers off phonons or magnons, and in our study, we reveal magnon-phonon coupling in FGT. We find a significant interaction between magnons and acoustic phonons, giving rise to the formation of van Hove singularities through avoided level crossings and the hybridization of magnon and phonon bands within the material. We identify the hybridization points in the dispersion relations and contrast their energies with density functional theory calculations. These discoveries provide a foundation for tailoring the dynamic magnon-phonon coupling properties in two-dimensional materials.
