Abstract
Described herein are devices incorporating Casimir cavities, which modify the quantum vacuum mode distribution within the cavities. The Casimir cavities can create energy differences within layers or device to drive energy from or to a portion of a layer disposed adjacent to or contiguous with the Casimir cavity by modifying the quantum vacuum mode distribution incident on one portion of the layer to be different from the quantum vacuum mode distribution incident on another portion of the layer. Additionally, Casimir cavities in which the cavity layer comprises a conductor that can be used to carry a flow of electrical power induced by the presence of the Casimir cavity.
