This code computes the complex dielectric constant (i.e. relative permittivity) and the refractive index of various metals using either the Lorentz-Drude (LD) or the Drude model (D) as a function of input light wavelength.

Additionally, it may compute the dielectric constant of pure water using a Debye-Lorentz model.

Choice of materials: silver, aluminum, gold, copper, chromium, nickel, tungsten, titanium, beryllium, palladium, platinum, triply distilled water.

Versione Pubblicato Note della release
1.3.0.0

Updated the value of the physical constant "ehbar" to a more accurate one. Thanks to A. Webster for the tip!
1.2.0.0

A coding error in the previous version is corrected in this version.
1.1.0.0

Added a new material (pure water) whose dielectric constant is computed via the Debye-Lorentz model. References are also updated.
1.0.0.0

Added some small changes to improve the overall performance. Included a screenshot to show the comparison between the Drude, Lorentz-Drude and exact experimental values of the permittivity of silver.
