I have read some literature to know that Raman intensity corresponds to the inelastic scattering of light with ion vibrations, and the positions of Raman peak correspond to the energy of phonon.
My question is on the large crystals such as large graphene, in which the phonon modes have wave number k. I found in many literature such as [10.1016/j.jssc.2011.02.009], only the gamma point phonon were considered, why? Is it a kind of approximation? And what is the physical reason behind the approximation.
