摘要: Abstract Both plasmon excitations and interband transitions are important in the response of valence bands to fast electrons. An extended Drude dielectric function was established describe such a solids complex band structures. Parameters this were determined by fit imaginary part experimental optical data. The real energy-loss also checked with data confirm critical-point energies collective excitations. In addition, sum-rules about function, respectively, applied assure accuracy these functions. Electron inelastic mean free paths several calculated compared available theoretical
