用导电氧化物使Casimir力减半

Halving the Casimir force with conductive oxides

S. de Man, K. Heeck, R. J. Wijngaarden, D. Iannuzzi

摘要:

通过调整相互作用表面的介电函数来修改Casimir效应的强度的可能性被认为是微和纳米机电系统发展中的一个独特机会。然而,在空气中,除非使用贵金属,否则由捕获的电荷产生的静电力会克服卡西米尔吸引力,从而在环境条件下没有利用卡西米尔力工程的空间。在这里,我们表明,在导电氧化物的存在下,卡西米尔力可以是占主导地位的相互作用,即使在空气中,和导电氧化物的使用允许一个减少卡西米尔力高达2倍时相比,贵金属。

英文摘要:

The possibility to modify the strength of the Casimir effect by tailoring the dielectric functions of the interacting surfaces is regarded as a unique opportunity in the development of Micro- and NanoElectroMechanical Systems. In air, however, one expects that, unless noble metals are used, the electrostatic force arising from trapped charges overcomes the Casimir attraction, leaving no room for exploitation of Casimir force engineering at ambient conditions. Here we show that, in the presence of a conductive oxide, the Casimir force can be the dominant interaction even in air, and that the use of conductive oxides allows one to reduce the Casimir force up to a factor of 2 when compared to noble metals.
