Reflectance spectra of Zn3P2 monocrystals measured in the restrahlen r
egion at 10 and 300 K were analyzed by means of classical oscillators
fit. The 18 transverse phonon modes were described by the oscillator p
arameters: mode frequency, oscillator strength and the damping constan
t. The influence of the initial values of the fitting parameters on th
e results of the optimization procedure was discussed.
