Thermal optical non-linearity of nematic mesophase enhanced by gold
nanoparticles - an experimental and numerical investigation 
Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., The Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016
DOI: 10.1039/C6CP00116E

The zip archive contains two folders:

The "Experimental data" folder contains the experimental data (and some fits)
in Excel xlsx format and as clickable pptx and docx documents.  The file
names contain the figure number where the data is plotted in the paper.

The "Numerical data" folder contains all the Matlab codes that have been used
to produce the numerical figures in the paper.  Each script has name FigX.m
where X refers to the figure number.  For example, figure 8 of the paper can
be reproduced by running the code Fig8.m.  All the other Matlab codes in this
folder are service functions that are called by the FigX scripts.
