Dear All,

I am calculating Raman spectra for a crystal structure with the second-order response as implemented in the phonon-package, and have 2 questions that are blocking me at this moment:

 - It is mentioned in the slides of QE-tutorials and in the source code (dynmat.f90 subroutine RamanIR) that the formula for the Raman cross-section is taken from D. Porezag, M. R. Pederson, Phys. Rev. B 54, 7830-7836 (1996), but I do not see that the Bose-Einstein statistical factor is implemented as given in Eq. (5) of that reference. Was that omitted for a reason or am I looking at the wrong part of the code?

- Secondly, the Raman intensity is given for the non-polarized isotropic case. I am working with a crystalline material and was wondering whether anyone has a script to calculate the Raman scattering taking also into account polarization of incident and scattered beam.

That would be most helpful. Many thanks in advance!

Best regards,

    Leonid Kahle
