Abstract: In this paper we study the De Haas-Van Alphen effect when an electric field is present. We prove that for sufficiently weak electric fields, where the conditions are favorable for energy quantization, the free energy is a quasi-periodical function with respect to the fields. As a consequence we find, for the magnetic susceptibility, periodical expressions which are easily reduced to the ones known for the De Haas-Van Alphen effect when the electric field vanishes.
