DESCRIPTION

dielectric calculates frequency dependent dielectric constants from the autocorrelation function of the total dipole moment in your simulation. This ACF can be generated by g_dipoles. For an estimate of the error you can run g_statistics on the ACF, and use the output thus generated for this program. The functional forms of the available functions are:

One parmeter : y = Exp[-a1 x] Two parmeters : y = a2 Exp[-a1 x] Three parmeter: y = a2 Exp[-a1 x] + (1 - a2) Exp[-a3 x] Startvalues for the fit procedure can be given on the commandline. It is also possible to fix parameters at their start value, use -fix with the number of the parameter you want to fix.

Three output files are generated, the first contains the ACF, an exponential fit to it with 1, 2 or 3 parameters, and the numerical derivative of the combination data/fit. The second file contains the real and imaginary parts of the frequency-dependent dielectric constant, the last gives a plot known as the Cole-Cole plot, in which the imaginary component is plotted as a function of the real component. For a pure exponential relaxation (Debye relaxation) the latter plot should be one half of a circle
