Optical dielectric function of silver
Open accessAbstract
Using broadband spectroscopic ellipsometry, the authors determine the complex valued dielectric function of silver films from 0.05 eV (\ensuremath{\lambda}=25 \ensuremath{\mu}) to 4.14 eV (\ensuremath{\lambda} = 300 nm) with a statistical uncertainty of less than 1%. While several previous similar measurements exist, they span considerably shorter energy ranges and report partially inconsistent results. In view of the wide-ranging applications of silver in nanophotonics, plasmonics and optical metamaterials, we anticipate this paper to become a standard reference for many scientists and engineers.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
