Using spectral ellipsometry, we have measured the dielectric function of a NaCoO crystal that exhibits bulk antiferromagnetism with T=19.8 K. We identify two prominent transitions as a function of temperature. The first one at 280 K involves marked changes of the electronic and the lattice response that are indicative of charge ordering in the CoO layers. The second transition coincides with T=19.8 K and reveals a sizeable spin-charge coupling. The data are discussed in terms of charge ordering and formation of magneto-polarons due to a charge-induced spin-state transition of adjacent Co ions.
