Role of coherence in quantum-dot-based nanomachines within the Coulomb blockade regime
Federico D. Ribetto, Raúl A. Bustos-Marún, Hernan L. Calvo
During the last decades, quantum dots within the Coulomb blockade regime of transport have been proposed as essential building blocks for a wide variety of nanomachines. This inclu…
Entropy current and efficiency of quantum machines driven by nonequilibrium incoherent reservoirs
Sebastian E. Deghi, Raúl A. Bustos-Marún
Nanotechnology has not only provided us the possibility of developing quantum machines but also noncanonical power sources able to drive them. Here we focus on studying the perform…
Theoretical Analysis of Metallic-Nanodimer Thermoplasmonics for Phototactic Nanoswimmers
Andrés I. Bertoni, Nicolás Passarelli, Raúl Bustos-Marún
We assess the potentiality of several geometries of metallic nanodimers (one of the simplest thermoplasmonic systems) as candidates for active particles (nanoswimmers) propelled an…
Lasing Conditions of Transverse Electromagnetic Modes in Metallic-Coated Micro- and Nanotubes
Nicolás Passarelli, Raúl Bustos-Marún, Ricardo Depine
In this work, we study the lasing conditions of the transverse electric (TE) modes of micro- and nanotubes coated internally with a thin metallic layer. This geometry may tackle so…
Nonequilibrium current-induced forces caused by quantum localization: Anderson Adiabatic Quantum Motors
Lucas J. Fernández-Alcázar, Horacio M. Pastawski, Raúl A. Bustos-Marún
In recent years there has been an increasing interest in nanomachines. Among them, current-driven ones deserve special attention as quantum effects can play a significant role ther…
Geometric rectification for nanoscale vibrational energy harvesting
Raúl A. Bustos-Marún
In this work, we present a mechanism that, based on quantum-mechanical principles, allows one to recover kinetic energy at the nanoscale. Our premise is that very small mechanical…
