Abstract:
We use a functional approach to the Casimir effect in order to evaluate the exact vacuum energy for a real scalar field in d+1 dimensions, in the presence of backgrounds that, in a particular limit, impose Dirichlet boundary conditions on one or two parallel surfaces. Outside of that limit, the backgrounds are described by a nonlocal effective action and may be thought of as modelling finite-width mirrors with frequency-dependent transmission and reflection coefficients. We obtain formal expressions for the Casimir energy in general backgrounds, and provide new explicit results in some particular cases. © 2008 The American Physical Society.
