CASTEP file formats - CST_OME
The .cst_ome
file contains the matrix elements for electronic interband transitions that are required to generate the dielectric
function and other optical properties, based on the results of a CASTEP job. This is a binary file which contains the array of matrix elements;
M(band1,band2,coord,k,spin). The loop is over the number of bands (band1, band2), x, y, z components (coord), k-points (nk), and spins (ns).
