Explain Casimir effect

Casimir effect (Casimir): The quantum mechanical effect, where two very big plates positioned close to each other will experience an attractive force, in the nonattendance of other forces. The cause is implicit particle-antiparticle pair creation in the locality of the plates. As well, the speed of light will be raised in the area between the two plates, and in the direction perpendicular to them.
