The Casimir force is a physical phenomenon that arises from the quantum field fluctuations in vacuum. It was first predicted by Dutch physicist Hendrik Casimir in 1948. This force occurs between two uncharged, parallel conducting plates that are placed very close to each other in a vacuum.
The essence of the Casimir effect lies in the quantum theory of vacuum. In quantum mechanics, even "empty" space is not truly empty; it is filled with virtual
