For strip line configuration, the integration to find electric field using vector potential is carried out over a cross section which gives a combination of currents formed by polarization current (along x-axis) and a strip current (along z-axis).
Here, [left and right arrow] [epsilon] is the dielectric tensor associated with the electric field derived from the vector potential, or equivalently, the dielectric function expressed in the Hamiltonian gauge which is defined by [empty set] = 0.
