-----Original Message----- From: Mark Iverson 1) If there are ANY dielectrics in the path from one heater to the other, then this is a NO GO since one would need a low resistance path.
Agreed. One thought that came up in the original posting was the negative, or very low bandgap suggestion, where an IR photon (emitted from the Casimir cavity) opens-up, or changes the apparent resistance in the dielectric (photonic semiconductor) from too high to very low (negative) for an instant ... IOW the bandgap for zirconia would shift to negative when a IR photon was absorbed. I know, it is too bizarre to mention in polite company, but where is the sanity in a great society like our own that pays out millions for a stupid horse race, or an illiterate baseball star, and yet cannot support basic R&D in this vitally important field ???? This technology should have been in place 20 years ago. Jones
