Markovian Master Equation and Thermodynamics of Two-level System in Strong Laser Field
K. Szczygielski, D. Gelbwaser-Klimovsky, R. Alicki
The recently developed technique combining the weak coupling limit with the Floquet formalism is applied to a model of two-level atom driven by a strong laser field and weakly coup…
Work extraction via quantum nondemolition measurements of qubits in cavities: Non-Markovian effects
David Gelbwaser-Klimovsky, Noam Erez, Robert Alicki +1
We show that frequent nondemolition measurements of a quantum system immersed in a thermal bath allow the extraction of work in a closed cycle from the system-bath interaction (cor…
Minimal universal quantum heat machine
David Gelbwaser-Klimovsky, Robert Alicki, Gershon Kurizki
In traditional thermodynamics the Carnot cycle yields the ideal performance bound of heat engines and refrigerators. We propose and analyze a minimal model of a heat machine that c…
Quantum bath refrigeration towards absolute zero: unattainability principle challenged
Michal Kolář, David Gelbwaser-Klimovsky, Robert Alicki +1
A minimal model of a quantum refrigerator (QR), i.e. a periodically phase-flipped two-level system permanently coupled to a finite-capacity bath (cold bath) and an infinite heat du…
Periodically driven quantum open systems: Tutorial
Robert Alicki, David Gelbwaser-Klimovsky, Gershon Kurizki
We present a short derivation and discussion of the master equation for an open quantum system weakly coupled to a heat bath and then its generalization to the case of with periodi…
