Raman signatures of the strong intra- and inter-molecular charge oscillations in bis(ethylenedithio)-tetrathiafulvalene (BEDT-TTF) \k{appa}-phase salts

Alberto Girlando

First principle calculations of the Raman intensities of a (BEDT-TTF)^+_2 centrosymmetric dimer lead to a full reconsideration of the assignment of the three C=C stretching phonons…
