Nonperturbative approach to Casimir interactions in periodic geometries
Due to their collective nature Casimir forces can strongly depend on the geometrical shape of the interacting objects. We study the effect of strong periodic shape deformations of two ideal metal plates on their quantum interaction. A nonperturbative approach which is based on a path-integral quantization of the electromagnetic field is presented in detail. Using this approach, we compute the f...
متن کاملNumerical Methods for Computing Casimir Interactions
We review several different approaches for computing Casimir forces and related fluctuation-induced interactions between bodies of arbitrary shapes and materials. The relationships between this problem and well known computational techniques from classical electromagnetism are emphasized. We also review the basic principles of standard computational methods, categorizing them according to three...
متن کاملCasimir interactions in graphene systems
The non-retarded Casimir interaction (van der Waals interaction) between two free standing graphene sheets as well as between a graphene sheet and a substrate is determined. We present several different derivations of the interaction. An exact analytical expression is given for the dielectric function of graphene along the imaginary frequency axis within the random phase approximation for arbit...
متن کاملMulti-periodic nanostructures for photon control.
We propose multi-periodic nanostructures yielded by superposition of multiple binary gratings for wide control over photon emission in thin-film devices. We present wavelength- and angle-resolved photoluminescence measurements of multi-periodically nanostructured organic light-emitting layers. The spectral resonances are determined by the periodicities of the individual gratings. By varying com...
متن کاملConfined diffusion in periodic porous nanostructures.
We performed fluorescence correlation spectroscopy measurements to assess the long-time self-diffusion of a variety of spherical tracer particles in periodic porous nanostructures. Inverse opal structures with variable cavity sizes and openings in the nanometer domain were employed as the model system. We obtained both the exponent of the scaling relation between mean-square displacement and ti...
