Now these fundamental matter particles interact by means of forces and within quantum mechanics we believe that these forces are mediated by quantum, by particles, and so we have the electromagnetic force mediated by photons which are massless; we have the weak nuclei force mediated by massive particles which are called W and Z and we have the strong nuclear force mediated by massless gluons.

This is because the layers are held together through so called van der Waals interactions which are relatively weak forces as compared to other bonding configurations such as covalent bonds.

Van der Waals forces are weak atomistic level forces, «but geckos are able to take advantage of them because of a remarkable system of branched hairs called «seta» on their toes,» Greaney explained.

The Casimir forces are due to the quantisation of electromagnetic fluctuations in vacuum, while the weak nuclear interactions are mediated by subatomic scale particles, originally called mesons by Yukawa.
