Geometric Bound for Trade-off Relation in Quantum Tricycle
Shihao Xia, Jingyi Chen, Jincan Chen +1
We establish a finite-time quantum tricycle driven by an external field and investigate its thermodynamic performance in the slow-driving regime. By developing a perturbative expan…
Quantum Coherence as a Thermodynamic Resource Beyond the Classical Uncertainty Bound
Shanhe Su, Cong Fu, Ousi Pan +3
Thermodynamic uncertainty relations (TURs) establish a fundamental trade-off between current precision and entropy production in nonequilibrium systems, yet the role of genuine qua…
Unlocking inaccessible performance of the quantum refrigerator with catalysts
Cong Fu, Ousi Pan, Zhiqiang Fan +4
Quantum thermal machines offer promising platforms for exploring the fundamental limits of thermodynamics at the microscopic scale. The previous study demonstrated that the incorpo…
Performance optimization of Nernst-based thermionic engines
Wei Yan, Minglong Lv, Ousi Pan +3
In this paper, we examine the power and efficiency of the thermionic device utilizing the Nernst effect, with a specific focus on its potential application as an engine. The device…
Optimal neutralization of negative space charges in photon-enhanced thermionic emission devices under bidirectional discharge
Xinqiao Lin, Zhiqiang Fan, Shunjie Zhang +4
In this study, we innovatively modeled photon-enhanced thermionic emission (PETE) devices, incorporating positive ion injection and bidirectional discharge's effects on the space c…
Centenary progress from the Nernst theorem to the Nernst statement
Xiaohang Chen, Shanhe Su, Yinghui Zhou +1
It is found from textbooks that there are the different versions of the schematic diagram related to the Nernst equation, and consequently, it leads to some discussion related to t…
