Extension of the Huttner-Barnett model to a magnetodielectric medium

Quantum Physics 2012-07-12 v1

Abstract

The Huttner-Barnett model is extended to a magnetodielectric medium by adding a new matter field to this model. The eigenoperators for the coupled system are calculated and electromagnetic field is written in terms of these operators. The electric and magnetic susceptibility of the medium are explicitly derived and shown to satisfy the Kramers-Kronig relations. It is shown that the results obtained in this model are equivalent to the results obtained from the phenomenological methods.
