Electrodynamics of Bechgaard Salts: Optical Properties of One-Dimensional Metals

Transmission spectra through powder dispersed in oil. The spectra were taken at K. The red solid lines correspond to a fits using Fresnel’s equations. (a) Transmission coefficient through a thin sample of mm. Interference within the pressed pellet yields the maximum at 13  . The strong scattering of the data below 5  is a result of standing waves within the cryostat windows. (b) Transmission coefficient through a film with thickness mm. The data are more accurate at low frequencies.
