Casimir-Polder interaction between an atom and a small magnetodielectric sphere

Agnes Sambale, Stefan Yoshi Buhmann, Stefan Scheel

On the basis of macroscopic quantum electrodynamics and point-scattering techniques, we derive a closed expression for the Casimir-Polder force between a ground-state atom and a sm…

Casimir force on amplifying bodies

Agnes Sambale, Dirk-Gunnar Welsch, Stefan Yoshi Buhmann +1

Based on a unified approach to macroscopic QED that allows for the inclusion of amplification in a limited space and frequency range, we study the Casimir force as a Lorentz force…

Impact of amplifying media on the Casimir force

Agnes Sambale, Dirk-Gunnar Welsch, Stefan Yoshi Buhmann +1

On the basis of macroscopic quantum electrodynamics, a theory of Casimir forces in the presence of on linearly amplifying bodies is presented which provides a consistent framework…

Local-field corrected van der Waals potentials in magnetodielectric multilayer systems

Agnes Sambale, Dirk-Gunnar Welsch, Ho Trung Dung +1

Within the framework of macroscopic quantum electrodynamics in linear, causal media, we study the van der Waals potentials of ground-state atoms in planar magnetodielectric host me…

Resonant Casimir--Polder forces in planar meta-materials

Agnes Sambale, Stefan Yoshi Buhmann, Ho Trung Dung +1

We study the resonant Casimir--Polder potential of an excited atom near a half space containing magneto-electric meta-material of various kinds on the basis of macroscopic quantum…

Van der Waals interaction and spontaneous decay of an excited atom in a superlens-type geometry

Agnes Sambale, Stefan Yoshi Buhmann, Dirk-Gunnar Welsch +1

Within the framework of macroscopic quantum electrodynamics, the resonant van der Waals potential experienced by an excited two-level atom near a planar magneto-electric two-layer…
