> >     Purpose of dynmat.x:

> >     - reads a dynamical matrix file produced by the phonon code

> >     - adds the non-analytical part (if Z* and epsilon are read from
> >       file), applies the chosen Acoustic Sum Rule (if q=0)

> >     - diagonalise the dynamical matrix

> >     - calculates IR and Raman cross sections (if Z* and Raman
> >       tensors are read from file, respectively)

> >     - writes the results to files, both for inspection and for
> >       plotting

## Namelist: &INPUT
fildyn | CHARACTER
Default: | 'matdyn'
>     input file containing the dynamical matrix
[Back to Top]
q(i), i=1,3 | REAL
Default: | q = (0,0,0)
>     calculate LO modes (add non-analytic terms) along the direction q (Cartesian axis)
[Back to Top]
amass(i), i=1,ntyp | REAL
Default: | amass is read from file fildyn
>     mass for each atom type
[Back to Top]
asr | CHARACTER
Default: | 'no'
>     Indicates the type of Acoustic Sum Rule imposed.

>     Allowed values:
>   `'no' :`
>       no Acoustic Sum Rules imposed (default)
>   `'simple' :`
>       previous implementation of the asr used
>       (3 translational asr imposed by correction of
>        the diagonal elements of the dynamical matrix)
>   `'crystal' :`
>       3 translational asr imposed by optimized
>       correction of the dyn. matrix (projection)
>   `'one-dim' :`
>       3 translational asr + 1 rotational asr imposed
>       by optimized correction of the dyn. mat. (the
>       rotation axis is the direction of periodicity; it
>       will work only if this axis considered is one of
>       the Cartesian axis).
>   `'zero-dim' :`
>       3 translational asr + 3 rotational asr imposed
>       by optimized correction of the dyn. mat.
>     Note that in certain cases, not all the rotational asr
>     can be applied (e.g. if there are only 2 atoms in a
>     molecule or if all the atoms are aligned, etc.).  In
>     these cases the supplementary asr are canceled during
>     the orthonormalization procedure (see below).

>     Finally, in all cases except 'no' a simple correction
>     on the effective charges is performed (same as in the
>     previous implementation).
