[Pw_forum] epsilon.x uniaxial material

[Silvia Bakalova]

Hi,

I am using epsilon.x to obtain the dielectric function of uniaxial material
(ibrav= 5 with trigonal symmetry).

However, e.g. the file epsi.dat contains three different values epsi_x
epsi_y epsi_z, while there should be two independent components (for E
perpendicular and parallel to the optical axis, e.g. epsi_x=epsi_y). Could
you, please, think of what the reason could be?

Many thanks,

Silvia
