Abstract
Effective medium theories (EMTs) find widespread applications in the general area of condensed matter. In this article, EMTs are used to investigate the properties of thin films of silicon nitride (SiNx) and silicon oxide (SiOx) produced by the low-pressure chemical vapor deposition technique. Experimental data on the technologically important properties, such as the optical constants and density, of these materials are compared with theoretical predictions using Clausius–Mossotti, Maxwell-Garnett, and Bruggemann equations. For both materials, the results show a good agreement between theoretical predictions as obtained from the solution of the Bruggemann equation and the experimental data up to the percolation threshold. The experimental results agree fairly well with the calculated results obtained through the solution of the Maxwell-Garnett equation, but the latter fails to predict the transition present in the composition versus optical constant curves of both materials.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
