• Abstract summary: We investigate the Casimir-Lifshitz force (CLF) between two identical graphene strip gratings. We take into account the high-order electromagnetic diffractions, the multiple scattering and the exact 2D feature of the graphene strips. We show that the non-additivity, which is one of the most interesting features of the CLF in general, is significantly high and can be modulated in situ.

• Abstract: We investigate the Casimir-Lifshitz force (CLF) between two identical graphene strip gratings, laid on finite dielectric substrates, by using the scattering matrix (S-matrix) approach derived from the Fourier Modal Method with Local Basis Functions (FMM-LBF). We fully take into account the high-order electromagnetic diffractions, the multiple scattering and the exact 2D feature of the graphene strips. We show that the non-additivity, which is one of the most interesting features of the CLF in general, is significantly high and can be modulated in situ, without any change in the actual material geometry and this by varying the graphene chemical potential. We discuss the nature of the geometrical effects and show the relevance of the geometric parameter d/D (i.e. the ratio between separation and grating period), which allows to explore the regions of parameters where the additive result is fully acceptable or where the full calculation is needed. This study can open to deeper experimental exploration of the non-additive features of the CLF with micro- or nano-electromechanical graphene-based systems.

  Characterizing entanglement in quantum materials is crucial for advancing next-generation quantum technologies. We introduce a method to extract various four-fermion correlations by analyzing the nonlinearity in resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) spectra. We show how this entanglement witness can efficiently quantify multipartite entanglement across different phase regions, highlighting its advantage over quantum Fisher information (QFI)

  We study the Casimir-Lifshitz force between a gold plate and a graphene-covered grating. We find a significant enhancement in the CLF as compared to a mere dielectric slab coated with graphene, over a wide range of temperatures. We demonstrate that the CLF depends strongly on the chemical potential of graphene, with maximal effects observed at lower filling fractions.

Our results demonstrate that dilute concentrations of self-assembled adsorbed atoms offer an attractive alternative route towards designing novel quantum phases in two-dimensional materials.
