Errata: Fitting the optical constants of gold, silver, chromium, titanium and aluminum in the visible bandwidth

Abstract

This paper [J. Nanophoton. 8(1), 083097 (2014)] was published on 6 January 2014. Thanks to a question by Yoann Brûlé from the Fresnel institute (Marseille, France), we found that the values of γL and γD were swapped in tables in Ref. 1. The problem comes from a bug in the automatic extraction of data from optimization method. Fortunately the curves in Ref. 1 are correct. This erratum gives a more readily available formulation of fitting for all considered metals and the corresponding criteria.
