An Industry-Academia Partnership for Advancing Quantum Frontiers: Perspective from the U.S. Center for Quantum Technologies
David Stewart, Gerardo Ortiz, Peter M. Kogge +2
The U.S. Center for Quantum Technologies (CQT) is a multi-university consortium established under the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Industry-University Cooperative Research C…
Measurement of the Casimir Force between 0.2 and 8 mum: Experimental Procedures and Comparison with Theory
Giuseppe Bimonte, Benjamin Spreng, Paulo A. Maia Neto +4
We present results on the determination of the differential Casimir force between an Au-coated sapphire sphere and the top and bottom of Au-coated deep silicon trenches performed b…
Probing the screening of the Casimir interaction with optical tweezers
L. B. Pires, D. S. Ether, B. Spreng +13
We measure the colloidal interaction between two silica microspheres in aqueous solution in the distance range from m to m with the help of optical tweezers. When e…
Detectable Signature of Quantum Friction on a Sliding Particle in Vacuum
Fernando C. Lombardo, Ricardo S. Decca, Ludmila Viotti +1
Spatially separated bodies in relative motion through vacuum experience a tiny friction force known as quantum friction. This force has so far eluded experimental detection due to…
Towards detecting traces of non-contact quantum friction in the corrections of the accumulated geometric phase
M. Belén Farías, Fernando C. Lombardo, Alejandro Soba +2
The geometric phase can be used as a fruitful venue of investigation to infer features of the quantum systems. Its application can reach new theoretical frontiers and imply innovat…
A quasi-analytical modal approach for computing Casimir interactions in periodic nanostructures
F. Intravaia, P. S. Davids, R. S. Decca +3
We present an almost fully analytical technique for computing Casimir interactions between periodic lamellar gratings based on a modal approach. Our method improves on previous wor…
Strong Casimir force reduction through metallic surface nanostructuring
Francesco Intravaia, Stephan Koev, Il Woong Jung +6
The Casimir force between bodies in vacuum can be understood as arising from their interaction with an infinite number of fluctuating electromagnetic quantum vacuum modes, resultin…
Application of the proximity force approximation to gravitational and Yukawa-type forces
R. S. Decca, E. Fischbach, G. L. Klimchitskaya +3
We apply the proximity force approximation, which is widely used for the calculation of the Casimir force between bodies with nonplanar boundary surfaces, to gravitational and Yuka…
Comment on "Contribution of drifting carriers to the Casimir-Lifshitz and Casimir-Polder interactions with semiconductor materials"
R. S. Decca, E. Fischbach, B. Geyer +5
Recently D. A. R. Dalvit and S. K. Lamoreaux arXiv:0805.1676 [Phys. Rev. Lett. v.101, 163203 (2008)] suggested the modification of the reflection coefficients in the Lifshitz theor…
Comment on "Anomalies in electrostatic calibration for the measurement of the Casimir force in a sphere-plane geometry"
R. S. Decca, E. Fischbach, G. L. Klimchitskaya +4
Recently W. J. Kim, M. Brown-Hayes, D. A. R. Dalvit, J. H. Brownell, and R. Onofrio [Phys. Rev. A, v.78, 036102(R) (2008)] performed electrostatic calibrations for a plane plate ab…
Comment on "Possible resolution of the Casimir force finite temperature correction "controversies""
R. S. Decca, E. Fischbach, B. Geyer +5
The recently suggested modification of the transverse electric contribution to the Lifshitz formula (S. K. Lamoreaux, arXiv:0801.1283) is discussed. We show that this modification…
