Casimir effect across a layered medium

Marin-Slobodan Tomas

Using nonstandard recursion relations for Fresnel coefficients involving successive stacks of layers, we extend the Lifshitz formula to configurations with an inhomogeneous, n-laye…

Recursion relations for generalized Fresnel coefficients: Casimir force in a planar cavity

Marin-Slobodan Tomas

We emphasize and demonstrate that, besides using the usual recursion relations involving successive layers, generalized Fresnel coefficients of a multilayer can equivalently be cal…

Casimir stress in and force on a metal slab in a planar cavity

Marin-Slobodan Tomas, Zdravko Lenac

Emphasizing first the utility of the generalized Fresnel coefficients in the theory of the Casimir effect in planar cavities, we complement our previous discussion of the ordinary…

Surface Enhanced van der Waals force

Marin-Slobodan Tomas

We consider the van der Waals interaction of an excited atom and a ground state atom across a vacuum-medium interface under the circumstances of the resonant coupling of the excite…

Casimir pressure on a thin metal slab

Marin-Slobodan Tomas, Zdravko Lenac

We consider the vacuum-field pressure on boundaries of a metal slab in the middle of a cavity with perfectly reflecting mirrors adopting the plasma model for the metal and paying s…

Enhanced van der Waals interaction at interfaces

Marin-Slobodan Tomas

Using a recently obtained (general) formula for the interaction energy between an excited and a ground-state atom (Sherkunov Y 2007 Phys. Rev. A 75 012705), we consider the interac…
