Using quantum friction to synchronize rotating bodies

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

Proposing a combined system of a nanoparticle and a plane surface in the presence of electromagnetic vacuum fluctuations, the electromagnetic and medium fields have been quantized. Quantum friction of nanoparticle due to the presence of plane surface and also electromagnetic vacuum has been discussed. The possibility of synchronizing rotating bodies through the quantum friction between them are investigated. It has been shown that there is a significant connection between the synchronization of the rotating bodies and their quantum friction.
