Periodic Thermodynamics of Open Quantum Systems
Kay Brandner, Udo Seifert
The thermodynamics of quantum systems coupled to periodically modulated heat baths and work reservoirs is developed. By identifying affinities and fluxes, the first and second law…
Optimal performance of periodically driven, stochastic heat engines under limited control
Michael Bauer, Kay Brandner, Udo Seifert
We consider the performance of periodically driven stochastic heat engines in the linear response regime. Reaching the theoretical bounds for efficiency and efficiency at maximum p…
Coherence-enhanced efficiency of feedback-driven quantum engines
Kay Brandner, Michael Bauer, Michael T. Schmid +1
A genuine feature of projective quantum measurements is that they inevitably alter the mean energy of the observed system if the measured quantity does not commute with the Hamilto…
Strong bounds on Onsager coefficients and efficiency for three terminal thermoelectric transport in a magnetic field
Kay Brandner, Keiji Saito, Udo Seifert
For thermoelectric transport in the presence of a magnetic field that breaks time-reversal symmetry, a strong bound on the Onsager coefficients is derived within a general set-up u…
