摘要:

使用原子力显微镜测量正弦波纹镀金板和大球体之间的横向Casimir力,表面间距为0.2 $μ$ m至0.3 $μ$ m。测得的力显示了对应于波纹的所需周期性。它还表现出必要的反四次方距离依赖性。所得到的结果被证明是在一个完整的理论,考虑到边界金属的非线性良好的协议。该演示为在微机电系统中使用卡西米尔效应进行横向平移提供了新的机会。

英文摘要:

The lateral Casimir force between a sinusoidally corrugated gold coated plate and large sphere was measured for surface separations between 0.2 $μ$m to 0.3 $μ$m using an atomic force microscope. The measured force shows the required periodicity corresponding to the corrugations. It also exhibits the necessary inverse fourth power distance dependence. The obtained results are shown to be in good agreement with a complete theory taking into account the imperfectness of the boundary metal. This demonstration opens new opportunities for the use of the Casimir effect for lateral translation in microelectromechanical systems.
