Resumo

A number of mechanisms for absorption of far-infrared radiation by small metal particles are explored. These mechanisms include the magnetic and electric-dipole absorption from needle-shaped particles and the electric dipole absorption by coated particles. Although the absorption coefficient of small-particle composite is enhanced by these mechanisms, the calculations cannot explain the experimental absorption.
