TL;DR
This paper demonstrates that a Casimir electromotive force (EMF) can be generated in nanoscale nonparallel metal plate configurations due to virtual photon interactions, unlike in parallel plates where EMF is absent.
Contribution
It introduces the concept of Casimir EMF in nonparallel nanoscale configurations and identifies conditions for maximal EMF generation.
Findings
EMF is absent in strictly parallel plates.
Nonparallel plates generate EMF due to Casimir forces.
Optimal angles and lengths maximize EMF production.
Abstract
In the present paper, it is shown that the existence of the Casimir electromotive force (EMF) is possible in nanosized configurations with nonclosed nonparallel metal plates. The nature of such EMF is associated with the drag current generation at the noncompensated Casimir action of virtual photons on the electrons in the nano-configurations. In the case of a classical configuration withstrictly parallel plates, EMF is not generated. However, EMF can be generated when even an insignificant angle between the plates appears. Angles between the plates and their effective lengths have been found, at which maximally possible EMF is generated in a configuration.
