Conductor-insulator nanocomposites in which the conductor percolates can have optical responses at longer wavelengths like dense conductors with an effective plasma frequency omega(*)(p). This applies at wavelengths where the Bergman spectral function F for permittivity varies sufficiently slowly wi...
