Canonical quantization of electromagnetic field in an anisotropic polarizable and magnetizable medium with spatial-temporal dispersion
arXiv:0810.2695 · doi:10.1063/1.3142963
Abstract
Modeling an anisotropic spatially and temporarily dispersive magnetodielectric medium by two independent collections of three dimensional vector fields, we demonstrate a fully canonical quantization of electromagnetic field in the presence of such a medium. Two tensor fields which couple the electromagnetic field with the medium and have an important role in this quantization method are introduced. The electric and magnetic polarization fields of the medium naturally are concluded in terms of the coupling tensors and the dynamical variables modeling the magnetodielectric medium. In Heisenberg picture, the constitutive equations of the medium together with the Maxwell laws are obtained as the equations of motion of the total system and the susceptibility tensors of the medium are calculated in terms of the coupling tensors. Following a perturbation method the Green function related to the total system is found and the time dependence of electromagnetic field operators is derived.
