Casimir effect with dielectric matter in salted water and implications at the cell scale
Larissa Inácio, Felipe S. S. Rosa, Astrid Lambrecht +2
The Casimir interaction in salted water contains a universal contribution of electromagnetic fluctuations that makes it of a longer range than previously thought. The universal con…

Prediction of a measurable sign change in the Casimir force using a magnetic fluid
Long Ma, Larissa Inácio, Dai-Nam Le +2
We demonstrate quantum levitation controlled by Casimir forces acting between a polystyrene surface and a Teflon-coated metallic substrate immersed in a mixture of Toluene and magn…

Casimir repulsion turned into attraction by the nonlocal response of salted water
Larissa Inácio, Felipe S. S. Rosa, Serge Reynaud +1
The Dzyaloshinskii-Lifshitz-Pitaevskii (DLP) theory of Casimir forces predicts a repulsion between two material surfaces separated by a third medium with an intermediate dielectric…
