From the interaction of an external electric field with the induced electric dipole moment of an atom, we search for Lorentz-violating (LV) effects. These quantum effects are associated with the assumption of a privileged direction of space-time determined by a fixed space-like vector field. From the induced electric dipole moment system, an attractive inverse-square potential stems are formed. The LV background, in turn, yields a Coulomb-type potential. Then, we discuss how the spectrum of energy of the attractive inverse-square potential is modified by the LV background.
