| Abstract | We investigate the role of surface plasmons in the electroma gnetic Casimir effect at finite temperature, including situations out of global thermal equilibrium. The f r e energy is calculated analytically and expanded for different regimes of distances and temperatures. Similar t o the zero-temperature case, the interaction changes from attraction to repulsion with distance. Thermal effect s are shown to be negligible for small plate separations and at room temperature, but become dominant and repulsive a t large values of these parameters. In configurations out of global thermal equilibrium, we show that the sel ective excitation of surface plasmons can create a repulsive Casimir force between metal plates. |
