Nonequilibrium Casimir-Polder Force: Magnus-like Effect

Maria Vittoria Gurrieri, Kurt Busch, Francesco Intravaia

The motion of a particle in vacuum near macroscopic bodies gives rise to a Magnus-like contribution to the nonequilibrium Casimir-Polder force. This effect originates from the inte…

Influence of random surface deformations on the resonance frequencies and quality factors of optical cavities and plasmonic nanoparticles

Philip Trøst Kristensen, Thomas Kiel, Kurt Busch +1

Surface deformations of optical cavities and plasmonic nanoparticles are inevitable in nanophotonics. The random morphology changes of different realizations modify the associated…

Numerical evaluation of Casimir forces using the discontinuous Galerkin time-domain method

Carles Martí Farràs, Bettina Beverungen, Philip Trøst Kristensen +2

We present a time-domain scheme for computing Casimir forces within the Maxwell stress tensor formalism, together with a specific realization using the finite-element-based discont…

The Casimir-Polder interaction between atoms and hollow-core fibers

Bettina Beverungen, Daniel Reiche, Kurt Busch +1

The Casimir-Polder force acts on polarizable particles due to quantum fluctuations of the electromagnetic field that are modified by the presence of material bodies. We investigate…

The power-spectrum tensor in steady-state systems and its role in quantum friction

F. Intravaia, K. Busch

We derive and classify properties of the power-spectrum tensor for systems in general steady-states, including stationary states not necessarily corresponding to equilibrium config…

Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics of Quantum Friction

Daniel Reiche, Francesco Intravaia, Jen-Tsung Hsiang +2

Thermodynamic principles are often deceptively simple and yet surprisingly powerful. We show how a simple rule, such as the net flow of energy in and out of a moving atom under non…

Nonperturbative and non-Markovian Förster-interaction in waveguiding systems

T. Sproll, Ch. Martens, M. P. Schneider +2

An exact solution to the interaction between two emitters mediated by Förster resonance energy transfer is presented. The system is comprised of a one-dimensional optical waveguide…

Failure of local thermal equilibrium in quantum friction

F. Intravaia, R. O. Behunin, C. Henkel +2

Recent progress in manipulating atomic and condensed matter systems has instigated a surge of interest in non-equilibrium physics, including many-body dynamics of trapped ultracold…

Non-Markovianity in atom-surface dispersion forces

F. Intravaia, R. O. Behunin, C. Henkel +2

We discuss the failure of the Markov approximation in the description of atom-surface fluctuation-induced interactions, both at equilibrium (Casimir-Polder forces) and out-of-equil…

TE resonances in graphene-dielectric structures

Julia F. M. Werra, Francesco Intravaia, Kurt Busch

We investigate the dispersion relations of TE resonances in different graphene-dielectric structures. Previous work has shown that when a graphene layer is brought into contact wit…
