Gauge transformation in macroscopic quantum electrodynamics near polarizable surfaces

Robert Zietal, Claudia Eberlein

To describe charged particles interacting with the quantized electromagnetic field, we point out the differences of working in the so-called generalized and the true Coulomb gauges…

Quantum electrodynamics near anisotropic polarizable materials: Casimir-Polder shifts near multi-layers of graphene

Claudia Eberlein, Robert Zietal

In a recent paper we have formulated a theory of non-relativistic quantum electrodynamics in the presence of an inhomogeneous Huttner-Barnett dielectric. Here we generalize the for…

Exact Casimir-Polder potentials: interaction of an atom with a conductor-patched dielectric surface

Claudia Eberlein, Robert Zietal

We study the interaction between a neutral atom or molecule and a conductor-patched dielectric surface. We model this system by a perfectly reflecting disc lying atop of a non-disp…

Quantum Electrodynamics near a Huttner-Barnett dielectric

Claudia Eberlein, Robert Zietal

We build up a consistent theory of quantum electrodynamics in the presence of macroscopic polarizable media. We use the Huttner-Barnett model of a dispersive and absorbing dielectr…

Casimir-Polder interaction between a polarizable particle and a plate with a hole

Claudia Eberlein, Robert Zietal

We determine exactly the non-retarded Casimir-Polder interaction between a neutral but polarizable particle and a perfectly reflecting sheet containing a circular hole. The calcula…

Interaction of an atom with layered dielectrics

Claudia Eberlein, Robert Zietal

We determine the energy-level shift experienced by a neutral atom due the quantum electromagnetic interaction with a layered dielectric body. We use the technique of normal-mode ex…
