Uncertainty relations for arbitrary currents in coherent transport

Ludovico Tesser, Janine Splettstoesser

We derive thermodynamic and kinetic uncertainty relations valid for arbitrary currents in coherent, strongly coupled, linear systems out of equilibrium. Exploiting properties of th…

Susceptibility-kinetic uncertainty relations for quantum systems

Didrik Palmqvist, Ludovico Tesser, Janine Splettstoesser

Kinetic uncertainty relations bound current precision of stochastic processes by dynamical activity. The extension of these bounds to quantum systems has been impeded by coherence,…

Stochastic entropy production in scattering theory

Ludovico Tesser, Henning Kirchberg, Matteo Acciai +1

We formulate a stochastic description of entropy production in scattering theory for coherent transport. We distinguish between the information entropy change due to partial knowle…

Fluctuation-dissipation bounds for time-dependently driven conductors

Ludovico Tesser, José Balduque, Janine Splettstoesser

We analyze the noise in a multi-terminal multi-channel conductor under arbitrary time-dependent driving and subject to -- possibly large -- static potential and temperature biases.…

Combining kinetic and thermodynamic uncertainty relations in quantum transport

Didrik Palmqvist, Ludovico Tesser, Janine Splettstoesser

We study the fluctuations of generic currents in multi-terminal, multi-channel quantum transport settings. In the quantum regime, these fluctuations and the resulting precision dif…

Roadmap on Quantum Thermodynamics

Steve Campbell, Irene D'Amico, Mario A. Ciampini +66

The last two decades has seen quantum thermodynamics become a well established field of research in its own right. In that time, it has demonstrated a remarkably broad applicabilit…

Kinetic uncertainty relations for quantum transport

Didrik Palmqvist, Ludovico Tesser, Janine Splettstoesser

We analyze the precision of currents in a generic multi-terminal quantum-transport setting. Employing scattering theory, we show that the precision of the currents is limited by a…

Thermodynamic and energetic constraints on transition probabilities of small-scale quantum systems

Ludovico Tesser, Matteo Acciai, Christian Spånslätt +2

We study the transition probabilities of a two-point measurement on a quantum system, initially prepared in a thermal state. We find two independent constraints on the difference b…

Out-of-Equilibrium Fluctuation-Dissipation Bounds

Ludovico Tesser, Janine Splettstoesser

We prove a general inequality between the charge current and its fluctuations valid for any non-interacting coherent electronic conductor and for any stationary out-of-equilibrium…

Constraints between entropy production and its fluctuations in nonthermal engines

Matteo Acciai, Ludovico Tesser, Jakob Eriksson +3

We analyze a mesoscopic conductor autonomously performing a thermodynamically useful task, such as cooling or producing electrical power, in a part of the system -- the working sub…

Charge, spin, and heat shot noises in the absence of average currents: Conditions on bounds at zero and finite frequencies

Ludovico Tesser, Matteo Acciai, Christian Spånslätt +2

Nonequilibrium situations where selected currents are suppressed are of interest in fields like thermoelectrics and spintronics, raising the question of how the related noises beha…

Thermodynamic performance of hot-carrier solar cells: A quantum transport model

Ludovico Tesser, Robert S. Whitney, Janine Splettstoesser

In conventional solar cells, photogenerated carriers lose part of their energy before they can be extracted to make electricity. The aim of hot-carrier solar cells is to extract th…

Heat rectification through single and coupled quantum dots

Ludovico Tesser, Bibek Bhandari, Paolo Andrea Erdman +3

We study heat rectification through quantum dots in the Coulomb blockade regime using a master equation approach. We consider both cases of two-terminal and four-terminal devices.…

General bounds on electronic shot noise in the absence of currents

Jakob Eriksson, Matteo Acciai, Ludovico Tesser +1

We investigate the charge and heat electronic noise in a generic two-terminal mesoscopic conductor in the absence of the corresponding charge and heat currents. Despite these curre…
