| contents | The Casimir-Polder force between spherical nanoparticles and a graphene-coated silica plate is investigated in situations out of thermal equilibrium, i.e., with broken time-reversal symmetry. The response of graphene coating to the electromagnetic field is described on the basis of first principles of quantum electrodynamics at nonzero temperature using the formalism of the polarization tensor in the framework of the Dirac model. The nonequilibrium Casimir-Polder force is calculated as a function of the mass-gap parameter, chemical potential of graphene and temperature of the graphene-coated plate, which can be both higher and lower than that of the environment. It is shown that the force value increases with increasing chemical potential, and this increase is more pronounced when the temperature of a graphene-coated plate is lower than that of the environment. The nonequilibrium force also increases with increasing temperature of the graphene-coated plate. This increase is larger when the plate is hotter than the environment. The effect is revealed that the combined impact of the chemical potential $μ$ and mass gap $Δ$ of graphene coating depends on the relationship between $Δ$ and 2$μ$. If $2μ>Δ$ the magnitude of the nonequilibrium force between nanoparticles and a cooled graphene-coated plate becomes much larger than for a graphene coating with $μ=0$. The physical reasons explaining this effect are elucidated. Possible applications of the obtained results are discussed. |
