Temperature dependent Casimir forces: recurring subtleties
L. R. Fisher, B. W. Ninham
The Casimir force between two ideal conducting surfaces is a special (zero temperature) limit of a more general theory due to Lifshitz. The temperature dependent theory includes co…
Casimir forces in a Plasma: Possible Connections to Yukawa Potentials
Barry W. Ninham, Mathias Boström, Clas Persson +3
We present theoretical and numerical results for the screened Casimir effect between perfect metal surfaces in a plasma. We show how the Casimir effect in an electron-positron plas…
Information Exchange via Surface Modified Resonance Energy Transfer
Mathias Boström, Clas Persson, Dan Huang +2
The theory is presented for resonance interaction between two atoms in an excited configuration: one atom, the "receptor" of information (i.e. energy), adsorbed on a phospholipid s…
Resonance Interaction Induced by Metal Surfaces Catalyses Atom Pair Breakage
Mathias Boström, Clas Persson, Barry W. Ninham +2
We present the theory for retarded resonance interaction between two identical atoms at arbitrary positions near a metal surface. The dipole-dipole resonance interaction force that…
Enlarged Molecules from Excited Atoms in Nanochannels
Mathias Boström, Iver Brevik, Bo E. Sernelius +3
The resonance interaction that takes place in planar nanochannels between pairs of excited state atoms is explored. We consider interactions in channels of silica, zinc oxide and g…
Ultrathin Metallic Coatings Can Induce Quantum Levitation between Nanosurfaces
Mathias Boström, Barry W. Ninham, Iver Brevik +3
There is an attractive Casimir-Lifshitz force between two silica surfaces in a liquid (bromobenze or toluene). We demonstrate that adding an ultrathin (5-50Å) metallic nanocoating…
