Based on my limited knowledge on Pyhon assisted simulation, as you mentioned, it allows to have material name. However in the screenshot 3, it is this script
float(base_epsilon) fails, as it tried to convert "Si (Silicon) - Palik" to float value. "Si (Silicon) - Palik" is string which can only be assigned to material property to an object.
