interband term e B (x) and a Drude free-electron term e D (x) describing theintraband conduction-band contribution: e(x) = e B (x) + e D (x). The latteris given within the free-electron model [40] <strong>by</strong>e D ðxÞ ¼ 1x 2 px 2 þ icxwhere x p 2 = (ne 2 /e 0 m eff ) is the bulk plasmon frequency expressed in terms ofthe free-electron density n, the electron charge e, the vacuum permittivity e 0 ,and the electron effective mass m eff . In Eq. (8), c is a phenomenologicaldamping constant which is equal to the plasmon band width C for the case of afree-electron gas in the limit of g
