On the Theory of Magneto-Optical Effects in Crystalline Dielectrics — •Nadine Suzan Cetin, Marius Dommermuth, and Nils Schopohl — Institut für Theoretische Physik and CQ Center for Collective Quantum Phenomena and their Applications in LISA+, Eberhard-Karls-Universität Tübingen, Auf der Morgenstelle 14, D-72076 Tübingen, Germany

A recent theory of the propagation of light in crystalline dielectrics, based on an exact solution of the fundamental field integral equations determining the microscopic local electric field, solely with the individual microscopic polarizabilities α(R,ω) of atoms (molecules, ions) at a site R and the crystalline symmetry as input into the theory[1], is extended to take into account the effects of a static external magnetic induction field B(0) within a Lorentz oscillator model. Decomposing the microscopic local electric field into longitudinal and transversal parts, an effective wave equation determining the radiative part of the macroscopic field in terms of the transverse dielectric tensor εab(T)(q,ω;B(0)) is deduced from the exact solution to the field-integral equations. The Taylor expansion εab(T)(q,ω;B(0))=εab(T)(ω)+iγabc(ω)qcabcd(ω)qcqd+Aabc(1)(ω)Bc()+Aabcd(1)(ω)Bc(0)qd+... around q=0 and around B(0)=0 provides then insight into various optical and magneto-optical phenomena, in full agreement with the phenomenological reasoning of Agranovich and Ginzburg. We present calculations of the Faraday effect for quartz, CaF2 and BaF2 and compare with experimental data.
