Purcell Enhancement and Suppression in Laser Cooling of Yb:YLF Nanocrystals in a Fabry-Pérot Microcavity
Lucas Mendicino, Franco Mayo, Christian Schmiegelow +1
We investigate the improvement of anti-Stokes laser cooling of a Yb:YLF nanocrystal in a Fabry-Pérot microcavity via the Purcell effect. Our analysis accounts for both the e…
Enhancing the efficiency of quantum measurement-based engines with entangling measurements
Franco Mayo, Augusto J. Roncaglia
We study the impact of entangling measurements on the efficiency of quantum measurement- based engines. We first show that for engines comprising many subsystems their efficiency c…
Quantum engines with interacting Bose-Einstein condensates
Julian Amette Estrada, Franco Mayo, Augusto J. Roncaglia +1
We consider a quantum Otto cycle with an interacting Bose-Einstein condensate at finite temperature. We present a procedure to evolve this system in time in three spatial dimension…
A Wigner quasiprobability distribution of work
Federico Cerisola, Franco Mayo, Augusto J. Roncaglia
In this article we introduce a quasiprobability distribution of work that is based on the Wigner function. This construction rests on the idea that the work done on an isolated sys…
