Small distance expansion for radiative heat transfer between curved objects
Vladyslav A. Golyk, Matthias Krüger, Alexander P. McCauley +1
We develop a small distance expansion for the radiative heat transfer between gently curved objects, in terms of the ratio of distance to radius of curvature. A gradient expansion…
Casimir forces on a silicon micromechanical chip
J. Zou, Z. Marcet, A. W. Rodriguez +7
Quantum fluctuations give rise to van der Waals and Casimir forces that dominate the interaction between electrically neutral objects at sub-micron separations. Under the trend of…
A diameter--bandwidth product limitation of isolated-object cloaking
Hila Hashemi, Cheng Wei Qiu, Alexander P. McCauley +2
We show that cloaking of isolated objects is subject to a diameter-bandwidth product limitation: as the size of the object increases, the bandwidth of good (small cross-section) cl…
Modeling near-field radiative heat transfer from sharp objects using a general 3d numerical scattering technique
Alexander P. McCauley, M. T. Homer Reid, Matthias Krüger +1
We examine the non-equilibrium radiative heat transfer between a plate and finite cylinders and cones, making the first accurate theoretical predictions for the total heat transfer…
Casimir repulsion beyond the dipole regime
Alexander P. McCauley, Alejandro W. Rodriguez, M. T. Homer Reid +1
We extend a previous result [Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, 090403 (2010)] on Casimir repulsion between a plate with a hole and a cylinder centered above it to geometries in which the centr…
Bonding, antibonding and tunable optical forces in asymmetric membranes
Alejandro W. Rodriguez, Alexander P. McCauley, Pui-Chuen Hui +5
We demonstrate that tunable attractive (bonding) and repulsive (anti-bonding) forces can arise in highly asymmetric structures coupled to external radiation, a consequence of the b…
