	abstract = {An analytical model for the prediction of the dielectric properties of gold{\textendash} silver alloys is developed. This multi-parametric model is a modification of the usual Drude{\textendash}Lorentz model that takes into account the band structure of the metals. It is fitted by a genetic algorithm to the dielectric function of thin alloy films of different gold{\textendash}silver ratio obtained by ellipsometry. The model is validated for arbitrary alloy compositions by comparing the experimental extinction spectra of alloy nanoparticles with the spectra predicted by Mie theory.},
