用相变材料开关Casimir力
Switching Casimir forces with Phase Change Materials
摘要：
我们在这里展示了一个可控的变化在卡西米尔力。在Au和AgInSbTe（AIST）表面之间的间距为~100 nm时，力的变化高达20%，这是在AIST的非晶样品结晶后实现的。这种材料以其结构转变而闻名，这会产生光学特性的显着变化，并在光学数据存储系统中得到利用。这一发现为控制纳米系统中的力铺平了道路，例如通过局部热源刺激相变转变的微型或纳米开关。
英文摘要：
We demonstrate here a controllable variation in the Casimir force. Changes in the force of up to 20% at separations of ~100 nm between Au and AgInSbTe (AIST) surfaces were achieved upon crystallization of an amorphous sample of AIST. This material is well known for its structural transformation, which produces a significant change in the optical properties and is exploited in optical data storage systems. The finding paves the way to the control of forces in nanosystems, such as micro- or nanoswitches by stimulating the phase change transition via localized heat sources.
