Driven quantum harmonic oscillators: A working medium for thermal machines
Heather Leitch, Nicolò Piccione, Bruno Bellomo +1
The study of quantum thermodynamics is key to the development of quantum thermal machines. In contrast to most of the previous proposals based on discrete strokes, here we consider…
A quantum fluctuation theorem for any Lindblad master equation
Gabriele De Chiara, Alberto Imparato
We present a general quantum fluctuation theorem for the entropy production of an open quantum system coupled to multiple environments, not necessarily at equilibrium. Such a gener…
Harnessing non-adiabatic excitations promoted by a quantum critical point
Obinna Abah, Gabriele De Chiara, Mauro Paternostro +1
Crossing a quantum critical point in finite time challenges the adiabatic condition due to the closing of the energy gap, which ultimately results in the formation of excitations.…
