Casimir force changes sign.
that the quantum fluctuations of an electromagnetic field, so-called zero-point fluctuations, give rise to an attractive force between objects 1. This force is a particularly striking consequence of the quantum theory of electrodynamics (for a review, see ref. 2). Casimir's calculations were idealized — he considered two perfectly conducting parallel plates at absolute-zero temperature — but th...
متن کاملPulsating Casimir force
Based on the Lifshitz theory we show that the illumination of one (Si) plate in the three-layer systems Au–ethanol–Si, Si–ethanol–Si and α-Al2O3–ethanol– Si with laser pulses can change the Casimir attraction to Casimir repulsion and vice versa. The proposed effect opens novel opportunities in nanotechnology to actuate the periodic movement in electroand optomechanical micromachines based entir...
متن کاملCasimir force on a piston
We consider a massless scalar field obeying Dirichlet boundary conditions on the walls of a two-dimensional L×b rectangular box, divided by a movable partition (piston) into two boxes of dimensions a × b and (L − a) × b. We compute the Casimir force on the piston in the limit L → ∞. Regardless the value of a/b, the piston is attracted to the nearest end of the box. Asymptotic expressions for th...
متن کاملCasimir force between dispersive magnetodielectrics
We extend our approach to the Casimir effect between absorbing dielectric multilayers [M. S. Tomaš, Phys. Rev. A 66, 052103 (2002)] to magnetodielectric systems. The resulting expression for the force is used to numerically explore the effect of the medium dispersion on the attractive/repulsive force in a metal-magnetodielectric system described by the Drude-Lorentz permittivities and permeabil...
متن کاملCasimir force between bimetallic heterostructures
With the recent growth of nano physics, the Casimir effect has gained more attention, and this time also on the experimental side [2–6], because it is clear that Casimir forces will have to be taken into account where micro and nanostructures are involved [7,8]. These experiments were made between a sphere and a plate, a setup that has proved more easily applicable in experiments. Recently Ianu...
