[QUOTE="Charles Link, post: 5511608, member: 583509"] Just an additional comment: The self-consistent calculation such as this one is a little tricky when you first see it, but the algebra is reasonably straightforward, at least for cases where the final result is a uniform field ## E_i ## and uniform polarization ## P ##. The mathematics for self-consistent calculations can get quite cumbersome in cases where the final result is a non-uniform field with a non-uniform polarization. Things would be very simple if the applied external field ## E_o ## were the field ## E_i ## inside the material as well, but oftentimes that is not the case. [/QUOTE]
