Wereport on the first single-state measurement of the broadband (450–800 nm)dielectric function of gold isochorically heated by a femtosecond laserpulse to energy densities of 10⁶-10⁷ J/kg. A Drude and aninterband component are clearly seen in the imaginary part ofthe dielectric function. The Drude component increases with energy densitywhile the interband component shows both enhancement and redshift. Thisis in strong disagreement with predictions of a recent calculationof dielectric function based on limited Brillouin zone sampling.
