Casimir interaction between absorbing and meta Materials

Quantum Physics 2016-11-15 v1

Abstract

We investigate the Casimir energy between two dissipative mirrors in term of a sum over mode formula which can be interpreted by analogy to a quantum dissipative oscillator. We also show that metamaterials engineered at scales between the nanometer and the micron seem a promising way to achieve a repulsive force.
