Enhanced Efficiency at Maximum Power in a Fock-Darwin Model Quantum Dot Engine

Francisco J. Peña, Nathan M. Myers, Daniel Órdenes +2

We study the performance of an endoreversible magnetic Otto cycle with a working substance composed of a single quantum dot described using the well-known Fock-Darwin model. We fin…

Multilayer Graphene as an Endoreversible Otto Engine

Nathan M Myers, Francisco J. Peña, Natalia Cortés +1

Graphene is perhaps the most prominent "Dirac material," a class of systems whose electronic structure gives rise to charge carriers that behave as relativistic fermions. In multil…

Boosting engine performance with Bose-Einstein condensation

Nathan M. Myers, Francisco J. Peña, Oscar Negrete +3

At low-temperatures a gas of bosons will undergo a phase transition into a quantum state of matter known as a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC), in which a large fraction of the parti…

Otto Engine: Classical and Quantum Approach

Francisco J. Peña, Oscar Negrete, Natalia Cortés +1

In this paper, we analyze the total work extracted and the efficiency of the magnetic Otto cycle in its classic and quantum versions. As a general result, we found that the work an…

Quantum heat engine in the relativistic limit: The case of a Dirac particle

E. Muñoz, F. J. Peña

We studied the efficiency of two different schemes for a quantum heat engine, by considering a single Dirac particle trapped in an infinite one-dimensional potential well as the "w…
