Quantum Batteries: A Materials Science Perspective
arXiv:2503.03542 · doi:10.1002/adma.202415073
Abstract
In the context of quantum thermodynamics, quantum batteries have emerged as promising devices for energy storage and manipulation. Over the past decade, substantial progress has been made in understanding the fundamental properties of quantum batteries, with several experimental implementations showing great promise. This Perspective provides an overview of the solid-state materials platforms that could lead to fully operational quantum batteries. After briefly introducing the basic features of quantum batteries, we discuss organic microcavities, where superextensive charging has already been demonstrated experimentally. We then explore other materials, including inorganic nanostructures (such as quantum wells and dots), perovskite systems, and (normal and high-temperature) superconductors. Key achievements in these areas, relevant to the experimental realization of quantum batteries, are highlighted. We also address challenges and future research directions. Despite their enormous potential for energy storage devices, research into advanced materials for quantum batteries is still in its infancy. This paper aims to stimulate interdisciplinarity and convergence among different materials science research communities to accelerate the development of new materials and device architectures for quantum batteries.
