Quantum properties of spherical semiconductor quantum dots
Quantum effects at the nanometric level have been observed in many confined structures, and particularly in semiconductor quantum dots (QDs). In this work, we propose... -
Standing wave vs Green's function approach to the Casimir force problem
After a short recall of our previous standing wave approach to the Casimir force problem, we consider Lifshitz's temperature Green's function method and its virtues... -
Multipolar scattering expansion for the Casimir effect in the sphere-plane ge...
We evaluate the Casimir interaction between a sphere and a plane, at arbitrary temperature, accounting for imperfect reflection. This enables us to study the rich... -
Can Dark Energy emerge from quantum effects in compact extra dimension ?
The origin of the observed acceleration of the expansion of the universe is a major problem of modern cosmology and theoretical physics. Simple estimations of the... -
The Casimir warp drive:Is the Casimir Effect a valid candidate to generate an...
Warp Drives are solutions of the Einstein Field Equations that allows superluminal travel within the framework of General Relativity. There are at the present moment...
