Coherent Long-Range Thermoelectrics in Nonadiabatic Driven Quantum Systems
arXiv:1607.06000 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.95.075301
Abstract
We investigate direct energy and heat transfer between two distant sites of a triple quantum dot connected to reservoirs, where one of the edge dots is driven by an ac-gate voltage. We theoretically propose how to implement heat and cooling engines mediated by long range photoassisted transport. Additionally we propose a simple set up to heat up coherently the two reservoirs symmetrically and a mechanism to store energy in the closed system. The present proposals can be experimentally implemented and easily controlled by tunning the external parameters.
