<div class="PlainText">Dear Dr. Timrov, <br>
<br>
Thank you again. You have helped me a lot.<br>
I'll read the references you suggested. <br>
<br>
In the hands-on, the spectrum (absorption, I believe) is plotted just using the ômega (in eV) and the imaginary dielectric constant. Why? Isn't it necessary another data?<br>
<br>
Besides, converting the ômega for eV, which unit should I use in the absorption plot (Y axis)?<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks for your help<br>
<br>
