MEASUREMENT OF THE CASIMIR INTERACTION BETWEEN A Au SPHERE AND Au GRATINGS

The measurements between a Au coated sphere and Au gratings with different structural parameters are presented. While the main effect of the grating is to reduce the interaction observed between the same sphere and a Au plane at the same distance, it is observed that the reduction is non-trivial. Wh...

Description
Summary:The measurements between a Au coated sphere and Au gratings with different structural parameters are presented. While the main effect of the grating is to reduce the interaction observed between the same sphere and a Au plane at the same distance, it is observed that the reduction is non-trivial. While at small separations the interaction is greater than what is expected from purely geometrical effects, at large separations the effect not only becomes smaller but it also presents a faster decay than the corresponding geometrical contribution.
