Maxwell's demon across the quantum-to-classical transition
Björn Annby-Andersson, Debankur Bhattacharyya, Pharnam Bakhshinezhad +5
In scenarios coined Maxwell's demon, information on microscopic degrees of freedom is used to seemingly violate the second law of thermodynamics. This has been studied in the class…
Continuous feedback protocols for cooling and trapping a quantum harmonic oscillator
Guilherme De Sousa, Pharnam Bakhshinezhad, Björn Annby-Andersson +3
Quantum technologies and experiments often require preparing systems in low-temperature states. Here, we investigate cooling schemes using feedback protocols modeled with a Quantum…
Steady-state entanglement production in a quantum thermal machine with continuous feedback control
Giovanni Francesco Diotallevi, Björn Annby-Andersson, Peter Samuelsson +2
Quantum thermal machines can generate steady-state entanglement by harvesting spontaneous interactions with local environments. However, using minimal resources and control, the en…
