Casimir Effect

The Casimir Effect is a quantum physical phenomenon in which a measurable attractive force arises between two uncharged, perfectly conducting parallel plates in a vacuum due to the modification of the zero-point energy of the electromagnetic field by boundary conditions imposed on the quantum vacuum.
