Dear Lorenzo Paulatto, Thank you for your reply. But recently I have gone your Physical review paper (PHYSICAL REVIEW B *87*, 214303 (2013) ) where you have shown phonon dispersion with LO-TO splitting for graphene (Figure 2) in page 214303-4.
"Figure 2 shows the calculated graphene phonon dispersion, the respective anharmonic broadening and the vibrational density of states (VDOS). The branches are labeled in the usual way.25 There are three acoustic branches (ZA, TA, LA) and three optical branches (ZO, TO, LO). ZA and ZO correspond to an atomic motion perpendicular to the graphene plane (*z* direction), all the other branches are polarized parallel to the plane." Being motivated by work I want to reproduce this curve. Please guide me.
