Calculations of Light-Matter Interactions in Dielectric Media Using Microscopic Particle-in-Cell Technique

The interaction between light and matter is usually modeled by approximating the material under study as a continuum. The magnitude of the material's polarization in the presence of an electric field is dependent on the atomic response via the well-known Lorentz-Lorentz relation. These continuo...
