You could define

j = complex(0,1) ; single precision

or

j = dcomplex(0,1) ; double precision

Note also that for purely imaginary input, the following is much faster than EXP(j*OFFSET_DEG*!dtor) if OFFSET_DEG is a large array:

offset_rad = offset_deg*!dtor
ph_offset = complex(sin(offset_rad), cos(offset_rad)) ; single precision

or

offset_rad = offset_deg*!const.dtor
ph_offset = dcomplex(sin(offset_rad), cos(offset_rad)) ; double precision
