Abstract
The interaction of light with the electrons in metals is an area rich in fundamental physics. In recent years, optical studies of metals have been eclipsed by studies of technologically relevant semiconducting materials. However, new and sophisticated material growth processes are now being used to produce exotic metal systems ranging from amorphous alloys to compositionally modulated structures. The Interest in these materials is motivated by the potential for discovery of new physical properties.
