Thanks a lot, looks great! Just give me few days to review it and put online.
Hi! I have a question about Daub's data: how did you get the numerical values? Digitizing the figure? If so, the range of your data seems to be larger than the range shown on the figure in the original paper...
Good eyes!
I think I got is from a published private communication. I'll check and provide a reference, though I can't few several hours.

Hi Mikhail,
Your investigation was with merrit! You have found a mistake in my documentation, which has been there for several years!
The data was provided Schinke in a private communication and published in: Schinke, C., Hinken, D., Schmidt, J., Bothe, K., Brendel, R., 2013. Modeling the Spectral Luminescence Emission of Silicon Solar Cells and Wafers. IEEE Journal of Photovoltaics 3, 1038–1052. doi:10.1109/JPHOTOV.2013.2263985
The data was originally presented in figure 10 of Daub's thesis not his publication that I had referenced.
E. Daub, “Photolumineszenz von Silizium,” Ph.D. dissertation, Dept.
Phys., University of Karlsruhe, Karlsruhe, Germany, 1995.
Thanks
Mattias

Hi Mattias, your data are now online!

Hey Mikhail,
Everything looks great. Thanks for the efforts!
On the scripts you have attached to the github, I think, https://github.com/kitchenknif/PyTMM, might not properly take into account the extinction coefficient. There is an implementation that does here https://pypi.python.org/pypi/tmm.

Hi Mattias, Hmm. I wasn't sure if the way I had implemented complex refractive indices in PyTMM was correct, but couldn't think of any quick way of checking... If you have an example that definitely shows incorrect behaviour, I would really appreciate it.
That being said, https://github.com/kitchenknif/PyATMM Should handle complex refractive indices correctly, and can also work with anisotropic (uniaxial) materials, but is a bit more complex.
Hey Pavel,
I wouldn't rule at user error yet . See below is my attempt at comparing 3 TMM implementations.
I compared a stack of a-Si [272 nm] and Si [infinite], optical constants shown below. So layers without k, I got good agreement between all models. Zip below containing everything required.
i did simulations at 0 deg, so polarization doesn't matter.
pyTMM seems to do some where stuff, giving over 100% transmission.
Yeah I has a look at pyATMM, and put it in the to hard basket for now. I'm only dealing with isotropic materials.

@MK8J @polyanskiy Moved the issue with PyTMM to the relevant project https://github.com/kitchenknif/PyTMM/issues/1 Can probably close this one?
Pavel
Fantastic work getting this off the ground and so much information together.
Please see if these are suitable for entry into your database.
