Dear Dr. Timrov, Thank you again! I'll read the paper you suggested.
I applied the equations I previously mentioned (M Jubair et al 2019 J. Phys. Commun. 3 055017) but the results were different I expected. I followed the steps in the hands-on to fill out the lanczos (changing the "itermax" from 1500 to 3000 and not including "restart_step"), and the spectrum (changing "itermax0" = 3000, "itermax" = 30000, and "end" = 5.0d0). Real and Imaginary dielectric constants are: https://imgbox.com/J5HLzRm3 Refractive index: https://imgbox.com/xtDMWcN9 Absorption: https://imgbox.com/gKOSojww Loss function: https://imgbox.com/9JdzXF6Z Conductivity: https://imgbox.com/7tbZ0EkT Dielectric constants are close I expected, but the Absorption and Loss function are constantly increasing, while the other graphs are not returning to Y=0 after peaks. Could you please help me to understand what I'm doing wrong?
