Lett. 103, 103602 (2009)], we found that repulsive Casimir forces could be realized by using chiral metamaterials if the chirality is strong enough. In this work, we check four different chiral metamaterial designs (i.e., Twisted-Rosettes, Twisted-Crosswires, Four-U-SRRs, and Conjugate-Swastikas) and find that the designs of Four-U-SRRs and Conjugate-Swastikas are the most promising candidates to realize repulsive Casimir force because of their large chirality and the small ratio of structure length scale to resonance wavelength.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-11-10T22:18:25.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "42.50.Ct", "78.20.Ek", "12.20.-m" ], "keywords": [ "chiral metamaterial designs", "comparison", "structure length scale", "resonance wavelength", "four-u-srrs" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review B", "year": 2010, "month": "Jun", "volume": 81, "number": 23, "pages": 235126 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010PhRvB..81w5126Z" } } }
