The nature of media effects relates to the fact that, since the microscopic displacement field is the net field to which molecules of the medium are exposed, it corresponds to a fundamental electric field dynamically dressed by interaction with the surroundings. The quantized radiation is in consequence described in terms of dressed photons or polaritons. A full and rigorous theory of dressed optical interactions using noncovariant molecular quantum electrodynamics is now available [25-27], and its application to energy transfer processes has been delineated in detail [10]. In the present context its deployment leads to a modification of the quantum operators for the auxiliary fields d and h, which fully account for the influence of the medium—the fundamental fields of course remain unchanged. Expressions for the local displacement electric and the auxiliary magnetic field operators [27], correct for all microscopic interactions, are then as follows... 

The theory of synergistic effects in two-photon absorption is based upon the standard methods of molecular quantum electrodynamics (QED). The fundamental development of these methods is delineated in the book by Craig and Thirunamachandran (1984), which has established the rigorous use of SI units in molecular QED. The same conventions are adopted in this review, representing a departure from two early papers (Andrews and Harlow 1983, 1984a) in which equations were cast in Gaussian units. 

Using the definitions of the jE,-coefficients in Eq. (29), and methods described in [42, 43] to evaluate spatial integrals over a HGTF basis, we may derive the following results which prove useful in our formulation of relativistic molecular quantum electrodynamics.
