Abstract
Generalized uncertainty relations are known to provide a minimal length . The effect of such minimal length in the Casimir-Polder interactions between neutral atoms (molecules) is studied. The first order correction term in the minimal uncertainty parameter is derived and found to describe an attractive potential scaling as , as opposed to the well-known long range retarded potential.
