Casimir rack and pinion: Mechanical rectification of periodic multi-harmonic signals

Amin Dehyadegari, MirFaez Miri, Zahra Etesami

We study noncontact rack and pinion composed of a corrugated plate and a corrugated cylinder intermeshed via the lateral Casimir force. We assume that the rack position versus time…

Lateral Casimir force between deeply corrugated dielectric and metallic plates

Arash Azari, MirFaez Miri

We study the lateral Casimir force between corrugated dielectric plates. We use the dielectric contrast perturbation theory [R. Golestanian, {\it Phys. Rev. Lett.} {\bf 95}, 230601…

Faraday Rotation and Circular Dichroism Spectra of Gold and Silver Nanoparticle Aggregates

Sahar Pakdel, MirFaez Miri

We study the magneto-optical response of noble metal nanoparticle clusters. We consider the interaction between the light-induced dipoles of particles. In the presence of a magneti…

Diffusive transport of light in three-dimensional disordered Voronoi structures

Zeinab Sadjadi, MirFaez Miri, Holger Stark

The origin of diffusive transport of light in dry foams is still under debate. In this paper, we consider the random walks of photons as they are reflected or transmitted by liquid…

Diffusive transport of light in two-dimensional granular materials

Zeinab Sadjadi, MirFaez Miri

We study photon diffusion in a two-dimensional random packing of monodisperse disks as a simple model of granular material. We apply ray optics approximation to set up a persistent…

Effect of the Heterogeneity of Metamaterials on Casimir-Lifshitz Interaction

Arash Azari, MirFaez Miri, Ramin Golestanian

The Casimir-Lifshitz interaction between metamaterials is studied using a model that takes into account the structural heterogeneity of the dielectric and magnetic properties of th…
