Comment on ``Lateral Casimir force beyond the proximity-force approximation''

arXiv:quant-ph/0702060 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.98.068901

Abstract

We demonstrate that the approach by Rodrigues et al. (PRL, v.96, 100402, 2006) to the description of the lateral Casimir force between corrugated surfaces is in disagreement with a path-integral theory by Emig et al. (PRA, v.67, 022114, 2003), and the approximations used are not appropriate for comparison to experiment.
