Casimir micro-sphere diclusters and three-body effects in fluids

Jaime Varela, Alejandro W. Rodriguez, Alexander P. McCauley +1

Our previous article [Phys. Rev. Lett. 104, 060401 (2010)] predicted that Casimir forces induced by the material-dispersion properties of certain dielectrics can give rise to stabl…

Calculation of nonzero-temperature Casimir forces in the time domain

Kai Pan, Alexander P. McCauley, Alejandro W. Rodriguez +3

We show how to compute Casimir forces at nonzero temperatures with time-domain electromagnetic simulations, for example using a finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. Compare…

Structural anisotropy and orientation-induced Casimir repulsion in fluids

Alexander P. McCauley, F. S. S. Rosa, Alejandro W. Rodriguez +3

In this work we theoretically consider the Casimir force between two periodic arrays of nanowires (both in vacuum, and on a substrate separated by a fluid) at separations comparabl…

Microstructure Effects for Casimir Forces in Chiral Metamaterials

Alexander P. McCauley, Rongkuo Zhao, M. T. Homer Reid +7

We examine a recent prediction for the chirality-dependence of the Casimir force in chiral metamaterials by numerical computation of the forces between the exact microstructures, r…

Achieving a Strongly Temperature-Dependent Casimir Effect

Alejandro W. Rodriguez, David Woolf, Alexander P. McCauley +3

We propose a method of achieving large temperature sensitivity in the Casimir force that involves measuring the stable separation between dielectric objects immersed in fluid. We s…

Casimir repulsion between metallic objects in vacuum

Michael Levin, Alexander P. McCauley, Alejandro W. Rodriguez +2

We give an example of a geometry in which two metallic objects in vacuum experience a repulsive Casimir force. The geometry consists of an elongated metal particle centered above a…
