Materials perspective on Casimir and van der Waals interactions (2015, unknown): “Though the vdW torque, defined as τ(d, θ) = −∂F(d,θ)∂θ , is eminently measurable, it has however not been measured directly yet (Capasso et al., 2007; Chen and Spence, 2011; Iannuzzi et al., 2005).”
The Casimir force between real materials: Experiment and theory (2009, result): “This has resulted in statements in the literature [see, e.g., Pirozhenko et al. (2006), Capasso et al. (2007)] that if different sets of optical data obtained for different samples lead to deviations in the Casimir force equal to, say, around 5%, then the comparison of theory with experiment on a…”

Long Range Interactions in Nanoscale Science. (2010, background): “…relevant interaction between neutral bodies at short distance, electrodynamic long range interactions play an important role in, e.g., microelectromechanical systems Capasso et al., 2007 , where they cause metals to attract and to stick at short distances, also known as “stiction” Serry, 1998 .”
