Efficiency at maximum power of a Carnot quantum information engine

Paul Fadler, Alexander Friedenberger, Eric Lutz

Optimizing the performance of thermal machines is an essential task of thermodynamics. We here consider the optimization of information engines that convert information about the s…

Quantum witness of a damped qubit with generalized measurements

Manuel Bojer, Alexander Friedenberger, Eric Lutz

We evaluate the quantum witness based on the no-signaling-in-time condition of a damped two-level system for nonselective generalized measurements of varying strength. We explicitl…

Nonequilibrium information erasure below kTln2

Michael Konopik, Alexander Friedenberger, Nikolai Kiesel +1

Landauer's principle states that information erasure requires heat dissipation. Landauer's original result focused on equilibrium memories. We here investigate the reset of informa…

Tailoring the quantumness of a driven qubit

Alexander Friedenberger, Eric Lutz

We investigate the nonclassicality of a two-level system driven by an external time-dependent field in the presence of dephasing. We consider two criteria for nonclassicality, one…

Assessing the quantumness of a damped two-level system

Alexander Friedenberger, Eric Lutz

We perform a detailed analysis of the nonclassical properties of a damped two-level system. We compute and compare three different criteria of quantumness, the -norm of cohere…

When is a quantum heat engine quantum?

Alexander Friedenberger, Eric Lutz

Quantum thermodynamics studies quantum effects in thermal machines. But when is a heat engine, which cyclically interacts with external reservoirs that unavoidably destroy its quan…
