摘要
The bulk conductivity of a two-dimensional system is studied assuming that time-reversal symmetry is broken by internal mechanisms. The study is carried out by direct diagonalization in order to explore the nonlinear-response provoked by the inclusion of an electric field in the system's Hamiltonian. The system displays a quantized conductivity that depends on the intensity of the field and under specific conditions the conductivity limit at zero electric field displays a nonvanishing value.
