How to make short naps longer for my very tired dd? All ideas welcomed.

After many weeks of trying I have finally got my dd to nap in her cot. So far so good but sadly she will only sleep for about 30-40 mins. In principle this is fine (and a hugely welcome respite for me) but she is waking up still tired and then gets irritable in the afternoon.
She's 7 months and I've heard of babies sleeping for up to 2 hours at this age. Has anyone had any experience of extending naps at all and can give me some advice?
Much appreciated.
