Finite-Size Effects of Casimir–van der Waals Forces in the Self-Assembly of Nanoparticles

Casimir–van der Waals forces are important in the self-assembly processes of nanoparticles. In this paper, using a hybrid approach based on Lifshitz theory of Casimir–van der Waals interactions and corrections due to the shape of the nanoparticles, it is shown that for non-spherical nanoparticles, t...
