Dear Lokanath,
I dont know why you have just two outgoing columns in the
case.outputjointup.
I always calculate full permittivity tensor from both case.inop and the
case.injoint. And it always works fine for me.
In the case of the case.inop, calculation of full optical tensor means
calculation of 10 columns (9 optical constant + one energy), with
case.injoint being as
======= start of an example case.inop ========
999999 1 number of k-points, first k-point
-5.0 3.0 9999 Emin, Emax for matrix elements, NBvalMAX
9 number of choices (columns in *outmat): 2: hex or tetrag. case
1 Re xx
2
3 Re zz
4
5
6
7
8
9
OFF ON/OFF writes MME to unit 4
Choices:
1......Re <x><x>
2......Re <y><y>
3......Re <z><z>
4......Re <x><y>
5......Re <x><z>
6......Re <y><z>
7......Im <x><y>
8......Im <x><z>
9......Im <y><z>
========= end of an example case.inop ===========
Maybe problem is, that you calculated three optical constants in the
case.inop, but asked for nine optical constants in the case.injoint.
With my regards
Jaroslav
