The influence of measurement error on Maxwell's demon
Vegard B. Sørdal, Yuri M. Galperin, Joakim Bergli
In any general cycle of measurement, feedback and erasure, the measurement will reduce the entropy of the system when information about the state is obtained, while erasure, accord…
Cooling by Heating: Restoration of the Third Law of Thermodynamics
Vegard B. Sørdal, Joakim Bergli, Y. M. Galperin
We have made a simple and natural modification of a recent quantum refrigerator model presented by Cleuren et al. in Phys. Rev, Lett.108, 120603 (2012). The original model consist…
Dephasing and dissipation in qubit thermodynamics
J. P. Pekola, Y. Masuyama, Y. Nakamura +2
We analyze the stochastic evolution and dephasing of a qubit within the quantum jump (QJ) approach. It allows one to treat individual realizations of inelastic processes, and in th…
Accuracy of energy measurement and reversible operation of a microcanonical Szilard engine
Joakim Bergli
In a recent paper [Vaikuntanathan and Jarzynski, Phys. Rev. E {\bf 83}, 061120 (2011), arXiv:1105.1744] a model was introduced whereby work could be extracted from a thermal bath b…
Information flow and optimal protocol for Maxwell's demon single electron pump
J. Bergli, Y. M. Galperin, N. B. Kopnin
We study the entropy and information flow in a Maxwell demon device based on a single-electron transistor with controlled gate potentials. We construct the protocols for measuring…
