...This could lead to the development of ultra-low static friction devices and sensors based on engineering these quantum fluctuations,” Munday said...
...learning how to modify this force, it can be incorporated into the design of the devices rather than just being a hindrance,” Munday said...
Indeed, when Munday replaced the gold plate with a silicon dioxide plate, the force became repulsive...
...This is very exciting,” Munday said. “Now we have shown that we can change this force in a dramatic way—from attractive to repulsive...
...Munday added that in future experiments they hope to levitate small spherical particles in fluid above a plate, but that the force “cannot be used to levitate trains or frogs or anything like that...
