“…The band at 1033 cm À1 originates from the symmetric stretching (n s ) PO 3 vibrations with the A g symmetry species, whereas the P-O-P stretching modes of the Co 2 P 2 O 7 are represented by the bands in the 975-675 cm À1 range. 24 Notably, the Raman band at 948 cm À1 is due to the asymmetric bridge P-O-P stretching, whereas the symmetric P-O-P stretching mode is seen at 748 cm À1 . 25 Additionally, the band at 627 cm À1 could be related to the vibrational modes of water.…”
