Van der Waals interaction between surface and particle with giant polarizability

We show that a nanoparticle with a “giant” polarizability (i.e., with the polarizability volume significantly exceeding the particle volume) placed in the vicinity of a surface experiences a strongly increased van der Waals force at distances comparable or smaller than the characteristic scale . At...
