Nonlinear Ohmic electromagnetic response

Abstract

We systematically investigate nonlinear Ohmic responses in second-harmonic generation and bilinear magnetoelectric effects within the Matsubara Green's function formalism. The optical nonlinear Ohmic conductivity is shown to consist of a nonlinear Drude-like part and an intrinsic term determined by the fully symmetrized normalized quantum metric dipole. Notably, we predict a previously unrecognized intrinsic Ohmic conductivity arising from band geometry in the bilinear magnetoelectric response, which exhibits transverse behavior similar to its optical counterpart. Using a two-dimensional Dirac model, we demonstrate that this geometrically induced nonlinear Ohmic response is observable in materials with high Fermi velocity and narrow band gaps. Our work provides a systematic quantum field-theoretic framework for describing nonlinear Ohmic transport in condensed matter systems.
