Average values of current and charge densities, induced by a weak electromagnetic field, are calculated. It is shown, that in both cases average current and charge densities contain two contributions, first of which is expressed through electric field, and second - through a spatial derivative of electric field. Appropriate expressions for the conductivity tensor, dependent on coordinates and applicable to any spatially-heterogeneous systems, are deduced. The results may be used in the theory of secondary light radiation from low-dimensional objects in cases of monochromatic light and light pulses.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2002-12-22T01:49:31.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "quantum theory", "heterogeneous systems", "conductivity", "electric field", "weak electromagnetic field" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
