We measured polarized far-infrared reflectivity and Raman scattering spectra of SrCuO$_2$ single crystals. The frequencies for infrared-active modes were determined using an oscillator-fitting procedure of reflectivity data. The Raman spectra were measured at different temperatures using several laser energies $\omega_L$. In addition to eight of twelve Raman active modes, predicted by factor-group analysis, we observed a complex structure in the Raman spectra for polarization parallel to the {\bf c}-axis, which consists of Raman-allowed A$_g$ symmetry modes, and B$_{1u}$ LO infrared-active (Raman-forbidden) modes of the first and higher order as well as their combinations. The Raman-forbidden modes have a stronger intensity at higher $\omega_L$ than the Raman-allowed ones. In order to explain this resonance effect, we measured the dielectric function and optical reflection spectra of SrCuO$_2$ in the visible range. We show that the Raman-allowed A$_g$ symmetry modes are resonantly enhanced when a laser energy is close to $E_0$, while Raman-forbidden (IR-active) modes resonate strongly for laser line energies close to the electronic transition of higher energy gaps.
