Optical properties of gold films and the Casimir force
V. B. Svetovoy, P. J. van Zwol, G. Palasantzas +1
Precise optical properties of metals are very important for accurate prediction of the Casimir force acting between two metallic plates. Therefore we measured ellipsometrically the…
Influence of random roughness on the Casimir force at small separations
P. J. van Zwol, G. Palasantzas, J. Th. M. De Hosson
The influence of random surface roughness of Au films on the Casimir force is explored with atomic force microscopy in the plate-sphere geometry. The experimental results are compa…
Roughness corrections to the Casimir force: The importance of local surface slope
P. J. van Zwol, G. Palasantzas, J. Th. M. De Hosson
This paper concentrates on a study where finite conductivity corrections are included in the theoretical description of the effects of roughness on the Casimir force. The roughness…
