Casimir effect demonstrated by Raman spectroscopy on trilayer graphene intercalated into stiff layered structures of surfactant

On the dynamics of confined particles: a laser test

“…The list of applications of these molecules is everyday growing; thus fullerene's cage can be used for in situ drug delivery and graphene fragments provide the plates for measuring Casimir forces [6][7][8]. Very recently, laser driven carbon allotropes have been shown to be good emitters of harmonics of the fundamental laser frequency [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21].…”

Stability of suspended graphene under Casimir force

“…(8) arXiv:1605.08644v1 [cond-mat.mes-hall] 27 May 2016 and Eq. (9). From their structure it is clear that the (∇h) 2 term dominates over the (∇ 2 h) 2 term at curvature radii exceeding r c = κ/σ.…”

“…One important source of such interactions is Casimir force between two conducting surfaces that orginates from quantum and thermal fluctuations of the electromagnetic field [4]. It has been intensively studied in recent years in application to graphene heterostructures [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12].…”

“…We, therefore, conclude that for all effects involving curvature radii in the excess of 1nm the energy of a suspended graphene sheet is dominated by the second term in Eq. (9).…”
