Residual currents generated from vacuum by an electric field pulse in 2+1 dimensional QED models

摘要

In the framework of strong field QED, the generation of a residual alternating polarization current is demonstrated, which remains after switching off an external field pulse. This effect is stipulated by inertial properties of the physical vacuum. In the standard vacuum D = 2+1 QED, this current is rapidly damped fast but can be available, apparently, for observation in the graphene, where the Fermi velocity vF ? c plays an analogous role as the light velocity.
