Observing a quantum Maxwell demon at work
N. Cottet, S. Jezouin, L. Bretheau +7
In apparent contradiction to the laws of thermodynamics, Maxwell's demon is able to cyclically extract work from a system in contact with a thermal bath exploiting the information…

Extracting work from quantum measurement in Maxwell demon engines
Cyril Elouard, David Herrera-Martí, Benjamin Huard +1
The essence of both classical and quantum engines is to extract useful energy (work) from stochastic energy sources, e.g. thermal baths. In Maxwell's demon engines, work extraction…
