Electric field and electric forces in a spontaneously polarized nonpolar isotropic dielectric
Abstract
Based on the microscopic Maxwell equations, we develop a method of description of the electric field in a spontaneously polarized isotropic nonpolar dielectric. We find the solution for the electric field E(r) for several typical examples. Moreover, we generalize Helmholtz's formula for the electric force acting on a volume element of a dielectric with regard for the contribution of the spontaneous polarization.
