“…There are numerous non-intuitive effects beside the commonly known Casimir effect and Lamb shift that are due to the quantum nature of the vacuum. Among those are vacuum birefringence [3][4][5], polarization rotation [6], vacuum diffraction [7][8][9][10], dispersion [11], scattering [12], reflection [13], generation of higher harmonics [14,15], or photon merging [14,16,17] and photon splitting [11,18,19].…”
