Abstract

Based on the complex analysis theorem the principle of argument, a temperature-dependent formula for the Casimir-Lifshitz dispersion force of the interaction of two arbitrary plane-layered structures separated by either a vacuum gap of size d or a layer of size d consisting of an arbitrary dissipative dielectric with dispersion is derived. The formula consists of the temperature-dependent Lifshitz formula plus the temperature-dependent contour integral
