Strong Coupling Quantum Thermodynamics far away from Equilibrium: Non-Markovian Transient Quantum Heat and Work

Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the strong coupling quantum thermodynamics of the hybrid quantum system far away from equilibrium. The strong coupling hybrid system consists of a cavity and a spin ensemble of the NV centers in diamond under external driving that has been realized experimentally. We apply the renormalization theory of quantum thermodynamics we developed recently to study the transient quantum heat and work in this hybrid system. We find that the dissipation and fluctuation dynamics of the system induce the transient quantum heat current which involve the significant non-Markovian effects. On the other hand, the energy renormalization and the external driving induce the quantum work power. The driving-induced work power also manifests non-Markovian effects due to the feedback of non-Markovian dynamics of the cavity due to its strong coupling with the spin ensemble.
