Nontouching Nanoparticle Diclusters Bound by Repulsive and Attractive Casimir Forces

Nontouching Nanoparticle Diclusters Bound by Repulsive and Attractive Casimir Forces

We present a scheme for obtaining stable Casimir suspension of dielectric nontouching objects immersed in a fluid, validated here in various geometries consisting of ethanol-separated dielectric spheres and semi-infinite slabs. Stability is induced by the dispersion properties of real dielectric (mo...
