Calculated transmission (log scale) through various Ag-TiO ₂ systems using the transfer matrix method. (a) 1 30 nm Ag layer. Ag (30 nm) and TiO₂ (30 nm) with 2 alternating layers (b), 8 alternating layers (c) and a 240 nm thick EMT slab with 50% fill fraction (d). Ag (10 nm) and TiO₂ (30 nm) for 2 alternating layers (e), 4 alternating layers (f), 8 alternating layers (g) and a 240 nm thick EMT slab 25% fill fraction (h).
