This article describes the optical properties of nanostructures composed of silver particles embedded into a gold matrix. In previous studies these materials were shown to exhibit temperature dependent transitions to a highly conductive and strongly diamagnetic state. Here we describe the anomalous optical properties of these nanostructures. Most notably, these materials fail to obey Mie theory and exhibit an unconventional resonance with a maximum at about 4 eV, while the usual gold and silver localized surface plasmon resonances are suppressed. This effect implies a significant deviation from the bulk dielectric functions of gold and silver. We further resolved this resonance into its absorbance and scattering sub-parts. It is observed that the resonance is largely comprised of scattering, with negligible losses even at ultraviolet frequencies.

In this report we show the possibility of broadband low-pass filters with windows of transparency in pre-set spectral ranges. Those filters are based on the unique optical properties of metal-dielectric composites near the percolation threshold. In such composites, metal clusters of different sizes and shapes have different plasmon resonances and resonate nearly independently at different wavelengths. All together, the resonant plasmon modes cover a very broad spectral range. Applying the effect of spectrally selective photo-modification, we develop a procedure that creates mid-infrared windows of transparency within the broadband filters. We also investigate the possibilities of making low-pass filters composed of spheroids and conductive sticks with certain distributions of aspect ratios.
