Looking to the imaginary component, the peak conductance increases by roughly

More variation occurs at the higher frequency, interband conductivity.

higher temperatures, this indicates that the intraband imaginary negative
peak takes place over a more gradual spectral range.

As the temperature increases, the negative imaginary peak gets smaller
in value with a smoother gradient.
For the real component, althought the final value does not change, the
gradient with which it is aproached changes.
At low temperatures, the increase takes place over a tight spectral range
with a sharp step action.
As the temperature increases, the spectral band over which the transition
occurs broadens with a smoother gradient while maintaining the centre frequency

Looking to the real component, the scatter lifetime can be seen to affect
both the cutoff frequency and the magnitude of the pre-cutoff value.

The magnitude of the conductance also increases exponentially as the lifetime
is increased.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Standard
Considering the imaginary component, a somewhat similar behaviour can be
seen.
The same exponential growth in magnitude can be seen in the 20 GHz peak.
With regards to the spectral behaviour, increasing scatter lifetime reduces
the frequency of the leading peak, broadening the range of the peak.
