Re^3: Can we calculate Frequency dependent dielectric constant of any sample?

Dear Siddheshwar,

you can specify up to 10 frequencies at once.
Set nfreq to 10 and provide desired values
in the freq array. It is recommended to set the
first frequency to zero and enlist frequencies
in ascending order. Note they are given in atomic
units so you need to convert your MHz or GHz values
to atomic units.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
Alex
