Dear Leonardo,
you are right that row 3 (for example) gives d_xy orbital. Strictly
speaking it is i*xy (with proper normalization) and that's why the
coefficients are real. The phase has no physical significance, i.e. you
can multiply any row by arbitrary exp(it) and the results (partial DOS)
will be the same.
Regards
Jan Kunes
