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…
Designing evanescent optical interactions to control the expression of Casimir forces in optomechanical structures
Alejandro W. Rodriguez, David Woolf, Pui-Chuen Hui +5
We propose an optomechanical structure consisting of a photonic-crystal (holey) membrane suspended above a layered silicon-on-insulator substrate in which resonant bonding/antibond…
