Syntax

miller-size = 3
There are three Miller indices altogether.

miller-default-direction-of-x = 1 0 0  ! corresponds to [100] direction in zinc blende crystal
miller-default-direction-of-y = 0 1 0  !
corresponds to [010] direction in zinc blende crystal
three-digit Miller indices
These value can be overwritten in $domain-coordinates (hkl-x-direction, hkl-y-direction, hkl-z-direction).

gamma-is-cb-number = 1
The conduction band minimum at the Gamma point has the number 1.
 

l-is-cb-number = 2
The conduction band minimum at the L point has the number 2.
 

x-is-cb-number = 3
The conduction band minimum at the X point (or "Delta" in Si or Ge) has the number 3.
 

direction-cosines = 0d0    0d0    0d0
direction cosines between lattice vectors
g1*g2, g2*g3, g1*g3 gi ... unit vectors in lattice directions

miller-direction-of-cx = 1 0 0  ! corresponds to [100] direction in zinc blende crystal
miller-direction-of-cy = 0 1 0  !
corresponds to [010] direction in zinc blende crystal
miller-direction-of-cz = 0 0 1  !
corresponds to [001] direction in zinc blende crystal
three-digit Miller indices

lattice-constants-for-cxyz = 1.0d0 1.0d0 1.0d0 ! lattice constants to interpret the Miller indices
