Abstract

The general properties of the nonlocal relationship between light intensity and bulk photovoltaic current density are studied within the linear response theory. As a result, only the even part of the response function is related to the bulk photovoltaic effect whereas the odd part is connected with diffusion of hot carriers. In addition, we present a calculation of the response function for a model of impurity centers in a ferroelectric crystal. We conclude that the characteristic decay length for the response function is neither the anisotropy length nor the mean-free path but the hot carrier diffusion length.
