Abstract
This letter presents a generalization of the Drude conductivity for systems which are exposed to periodic driving. The probe bias is treated perturbatively by using the Kubo formula, whereas the external driving is included non-perturbatively using the Floquet theory. Using a new type of four-times Green's functions disorder is approached diagrammatically, yielding a fully analytical expression for the Floquet-Drude conductivity. Furthermore, the Floquet Fermi's golden rule is generalized to $tt'$-Floquet states, connecting the Floquet-Dyson series with scattering theory for Floquet states. Our formalism allows for a direct application to numerous systems e.g. graphene or spin-orbit systems.
