Effective Maxwell equations from time-dependent density functional theory
Abstract
The behavior of interacting electrons in a perfect crystal under macroscopic external
electric and magnetic fields is studied. Effective Maxwell equations for the macroscopic
electric and magnetic fields are derived starting from time-dependent density functional
theory. Effective permittivity and permeability coefficients are obtained. © 2011
