Topic: QED fluctuations and fractal objects One of the most striking predictions of quantum physics is the interaction of the electromagnetic vacuum with atoms and macroscopic bodies. Spectacular manifes- tations of this interaction are Casimir forces. Enormous progress in force sensing techniques and the fabrication of nano-structures have highlighted impressively the practical relevance of this…Continue readingPhD position opening 2024
I’m glad to announce that our most recent work on general methods to compute fluctuation forces and heat radiation and transfer in nano-systems has been accepted for publication in Physical Review Letters. Quantum physics tells us that light (or the electromagnetic field) is quantized. One of the most striking predictions of quantum physics is the…Continue readingMultiple Scattering Expansion for Dielectric Media: Casimir Effect
Topic: Multiple Scattering Approaches in Casimir Forces and Heat Transfer One of the most striking predictions of quantum physics is the interaction of the electromagnetic vacuum with atoms and macroscopic bodies.
