Abstract

We present a general method for redefining the permittivity and permeability tensors of a medium or structure exhibiting spatial dispersion (SD). The method effectively separates the electric and magnetic contributions that are intertwined in the traditional description of the SD-dependent permittivity tensor. The redefined material tensors are the ones to be used in the common methods for calculating the optical response of layered structures, thus enabling modeling of experiments in the presence of SD.
