genesis_hdf5 file format

The genesis hdf5 structure contains the wavelength, gridsize, number of points and the field as a 1d double array. It can contain multiple time slices.

The grid is quadratic and centered, there is just one polarization. The field array is ordered real1, imag1, real2, imag2... in c notation (columns are fast). I'm not sure whether it is defined where the grid starts- unless I know better I assume it start at the lower left corner.
