Repulsive Casimir force in chiral metamaterials.
We demonstrate theoretically that one can obtain repulsive Casimir forces and stable nanolevitations by using chiral metamaterials. By extending the Lifshitz theory to treat chiral metamaterials, we find that a repulsive force and a minimum of the interaction energy possibly exist for strong chirality, under realistic frequency dependencies and correct limiting values (for zero and infinite fre...
متن کاملWeak and Repulsive Casimir Force in Piston Geometries
We study the Casimir force in piston-like geometries semiclassically. The force on the piston is finite and physical, but to leading semiclassical approximation depends strongly on the shape of the surrounding cavity. Whereas this force is attractive for pistons in a parallelepiped with flat cylinder head, for which the semiclassical approximation by periodic orbits is exact, this approximation...
متن کاملEvanescent character of the repulsive thermal Casimir force
The physical origin of the negative thermal correction to the Casimir force between metals is clarified. For this purpose the asymptotic behavior of the thermal Casimir force is analyzed at large and small distances in the real frequency representation. Contributions from propagating and evanescent waves are considered separately. At large distances they cancel each other in substantial degree ...
متن کاملRepulsive Casimir effect with Chern insulators.
We theoretically predict that the Casimir force in vacuum between two Chern insulator plates can be repulsive (attractive) at long distances whenever the sign of the Chern numbers characterizing the two plates are opposite (equal). A unique feature of this system is that the sign of the force can be tuned simply by turning over one of the plates or alternatively by electrostatic doping. We calc...
متن کامل- Function Method for Repulsive Casimir Forces
Since Casimir's paper [1] on the attraction of two neutral parallel (perfectly) conducting plates due to the vacuum uctuations of the electromagnetic eld, a considerable amount of work has been done on this subject, varying from the application of alternative techniques to the exploration of new geometries and theories. Excellent reviews as well as a large list of relevant references on this su...
