%X Dimensionality provides a clear fingerprint on the dispersion of infrared-active, polar-optical phonons. For these phonons, the local dipoles parametrized by the Born effective charges drive the LO-TO splitting of bulk materials; this splitting actually breaks down in two-dimensional materials. Here, we extend the existing theory to the one-dimensional (1D) case. Combining an analytical model with the implementation of density-functional perturbation theory in 1D boundary conditions, we show that the dielectric splitting in the dispersion relations collapses logarithmically at the zone center. The dielectric properties and the radius of the 1D materials are linked by the present work to these red shifts, opening novel IR and Raman characterization avenues.
