Experimental demonstration of an atomtronic battery
arXiv:1701.06590 · doi:10.1088/1367-2630/aa56d8
Abstract
Operation of an atomtronic battery is demonstrated where a finite-temperature Bose-Einstein condensate stored in one half of a double-well potential is coupled to an initially empty load well that is impedance matched by a resonant terminator beam. The atom number and temperature of the condensate are monitored during the discharge cycle, and are used to calculate fundamental properties of the battery. The discharge behavior is analyzed according to a Thévenin equivalent circuit that contains a finite internal resistance to account for dissipation in the battery. Battery performance at multiple discharge rates is characterized by the peak power output, and the current and energy capacities of the system.
