British scientists learn to levitate very tiny objects

AFP, LONDON
Wednesday, Aug 08, 2007, Page 6British scientists have discovered a ground-breaking way of levitating ultra small objects, which may revolutionize the design of micro-machines, a new report says.
Physicists said they can create “incredible levitation effects” by manipulating so-called Casimir force, which normally causes objects to stick together by quantum force.
The phenomenon could be used [...]
