The PHonon package was originally developed by Stefano Baroni, Stefano de Gironcoli, Andrea Dal Corso (SISSA), Paolo Giannozzi (Univ. Udine), and many others. We quote in particular:

• Michele Lazzeri (Univ.Paris VI) for the 2n+1 code and Raman cross section calculation with 2nd-order response;
• Andrea Dal Corso for the implementation of Ultrasoft, PAW, noncolinear, spin-orbit extensions to PHonon;
• Mitsuaki Kawamura (U.Tokyo) for implementation of the optimized tetrahedron method in phonon and electron-phonon calculations;
• Thibault Sohier, Matteo Calandra, Francesco Mauri, for phonons in two-dimensional systems;
• Andrea Floris, Iurii Timrov, Burak Himmetoglu, Nicola Marzari, Stefano de Gironcoli, and Matteo Cococcioni, for phonons using Hubbard-corrected DFPT (DFPT+U).

Other contributors include: Lorenzo Paulatto (Univ. Paris VI) for PAW, 2n+1 code; William Parker (Argonne) for phonon terms in dielectric tensor; Tobias Wassmann (Univ. Paris VI) for third-order derivatives of GGA potential. Weicheng Bao (Nanjing University) and Norge Cruz Hernandez (Universidad de Sevilla) helped debugging the phonon code.
