Optical properties of the metals Al, Co, Cu, Au, Fe, Pb, Ni, Pd, Pt, Ag, Ti, and W in the infrared and far infrared

TLDR
The data for the noble metals and Al, Pb, and W can be reasonably fit using the Drude model and it is shown that -epsilon1(omegas) = epsilon2(omega) approximately omega(2)(p)/(2omega( 2)(tau) at the damping frequency omega = omega(tau), where the plasma frequency is omega(p).
Abstract
Infrared optical constants collected from the literature are tabulated. The data for the noble metals and Al, Pb, and W can be reasonably fit using the Drude model. It is shown that -epsilon1(omega) = epsilon2(omega) approximately omega(2)(p)/(2omega(2)(tau)) at the damping frequency omega = omega(tau). Also -epsilon1(omega(tau)) approximately - (1/2) epsilon1(0), where the plasma frequency is omega(p).

Plasmonic analogue of electromagnetically induced transparency at the Drude damping limit.

TL;DR: A nanoplasmonic analogue of EIT is experimentally demonstrated using a stacked optical metamaterial to achieve a very narrow transparency window with high modulation depth owing to nearly complete suppression of radiative losses.
