Fig. 5: Comparison between a Drude model analysis and our method on the determination of SiO2 DC conductivity.
From: Electrical conductivity of warm dense silica from double-shock experiments
a SiO2 DC electrical conductivity as a function of temperature along the fused silica (blue) and α-quartz (light blue) principal Hugoniot. Diamonds are conductivity values from experimental reflectivity using a Drude model10,16, the full lines are the results of our methodology applied to reflectivity data of Hick et al.16 and circles are HSE calculations19. b DC electrical conductivity values found with our methods (red diamonds) and using Drude model (violet squares) for the double shocked states presented in this work. Error bars are shown as one standard deviation of the distribution obtained via a Monte-Carlo method (see the Supplementary Notes 6 for details).
