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…
Proximity-induced spin-polarized magnetocaloric effect in transition metal dichalcogenides
Natalia Cortés, Francisco J. Peña, Oscar Negrete +1
We explore proximity-induced magnetocaloric effect (MCE) on transition metal dichalcogenides, focusing on a two-dimensional (2D) MoTe monolayer deposited on a ferromagnetic sem…
Seebeck and Nernst effects in topological insulator: the case of strained HgTe
Francisco J. Peña, Oscar Negrete, Ning Ma +3
We theoretically study the thermoelectric transport properties of strained HgTe in the topological insulator phase. We developed a model for the system using a Dirac Hamiltonian in…
Light-matter quantum Otto engine in finite time
G. Alvarado Barrios, F. Albarrán-Arriagada, F. J. Peña +2
We study a quantum Otto engine at finite time, where the working substance is composed of a two-level system interacting with a harmonic oscillator, described by the quantum Rabi m…
Gate-tunable direct and inverse electrocaloric effect in trilayer graphene
Natalia Cortés, Oscar Negrete, Francisco J. Peña +1
The electrocaloric (EC) effect is the reversible change in temperature and/or entropy of a material when it is subjected to an adiabatic electric field change. Our tight-binding ca…
