Thermodynamics of a phaseonium-driven optomechanical Otto engine
Federico Amato, Gerardo Adesso, G. Massimo Palma +2
We study an optomechanical Otto engine whose working medium is a single-mode cavity driven by beams of coherently prepared three-level phaseonium atoms. The atoms are not thermal r…

Heating and cooling processes via phaseonium-driven dynamics of cascade systems
Federico Amato, Claudio Pellitteri, G. Massimo Palma +2
The search for strategies to harness the temperature of quantum systems is one of the main goals in quantum thermodynamics. Here we study the dynamics of a system made of a pair of…
