We report on the one-phonon Raman scattering spectra from the following M2AC MAX-phase ternary carbides: Ti2AlC, V2AlC, Cr2AlC, Nb2AlC, Ta2AlC, Ti2InC, Hf2InC, V2GeC, Cr2GeC, V2AsC, and Nb2AsC. We also report the results of calculations of the Γ-point, Raman-active phonon energies for these phases based on density functional theoretical simulations, including the effect of the k-point sampling on the convergence of phonon energies. Good agreement between all measured and calculated Γ-point Raman-active optical phonon energies is obtained.
