18. There is another scenario to explain the mid-infrared absorption peak in terms of orbital fluctuations. However, as far as we know, any quantitative analysis of experimental optical data based on this scenario has not been attempted. Moreover, details of some theoretical predictions do not agree with the experimental data. For example, see J. H. Jung et al., Phys. Rev. B 62, 8634 (2000).
