We carry out a systematic study of polarized- and temperature-dependent Raman scattering of layered Weyl semimetal NbIrTe4 on the (002) crystal surface, under parallel and perpendicular polarization Raman spectroscopy geometry in back scattering way, the angle-dependent Raman peaks intensity is recorded by rotating the single crystal from 0 degrees to 360% in combination with group theory analysis, all the prominent Raman peaks are assigned to A(1) and B-1 vibrational modes, moreover, we show that the angular dependence of Raman peak intensity of A(1) mode is rather unusual and can be explained by complex values for Raman tensor elements, which is traced back to electron-phonon interaction in this material. Meanwhile, lattice anharmonic vibrational behavior is studied by investigating the temperature-dependent Raman scattering spectra, it is observed that all the Raman peaks show linear stiffening behavior as the temperature decreased from 293 K to 83 K, the temperature coefficients of four prominent Raman peaks suggest the anharmonicity of the lattice in layered NbIrTe4 crystal.
