  1. LEGEND: s = strong signal, m = medium signal, w = weak signal
  2. (1)Values reported by University of Florence. Relative acquisitions were obtained with laser line x=514.5 nm, lens 100x, time of acquisition 100”, resolution 7 cm-1.
  3. We effected our measures with an instrument Lab Ram Infinity by Jobin Yvon Horiba Group, laser He-Ne (λ=632.8 nm), filter D06, hole100, grid 1800 strips/mm, resolution 3 cm-1, acquisition 5x60”
