Bragg spectroscopy for measuring Casimir–Polder interactions with Bose–Einstein condensates above corrugated surfaces

Gustavo A Moreno, Diego A R Dalvit, Esteban Calzetta

We propose a method to probe dispersive atom–surface interactions by measuring via two-photon Bragg spectroscopy the dynamic structure factor of a Bose–Einstein condensate above corrugated surfaces. This method takes advantage of the condensate coherence to reveal the spatial Fourier components of the lateral Casimir–Polder interaction energy.

Dispersive interactions between atoms and nonplanar surfaces

Riccardo Messina, Diego A. R. Dalvit, Paulo A. Maia Neto +2 more

We calculate the dispersive force between a ground-state atom and a nonplanar surface. We present explicit results for a corrugated surface, derived from the scattering approach at first order in the corrugation amplitude. A variety of analytical results in different limiting cases, including the van der Waals and Casimir-Polder regimes, is derived. We compute numerically the exact first-order dispersive potential for arbitrary separation distances and corrugation wavelengths for a rubidium atom on top of a silicon or gold corrugated surface. We discuss in detail the inadequacy of the proximity force approximation, and present a simple but adequate approximation for computing the potential.
