snip I'm glad you understand the calculation. Unfortunately, it has some errors, and it is for much too large cells to produce much Casimir effect. The scale needs to be more on the scale of 10-7 m to have an effect.
Reply Maybe the nano fabrication issues facing your cells and the proposed Jovion prototype will soon be resolved using recent nanotube discoveries. 1.Dr Peng at Cornell http://www.news.cornell.edu/stories/April09/nanotubeCatalysts.ws.html has just proven that catalytic action only occurs at the opening and defects in the nanotube wall. And 2. a Trick discovered by McGill researchers to build nano tubes one ring at a time http://www.foresight.org/nanodot/?p=3019 may allow alternating conductive and insulating rinks equivalent to the Haisch-Moddel "colums".
