Rectification of heat current in Corbino geometry
Zhixing Zou, Giulio Casati, Giuliano Benenti +1
We prove analytically the ballistic thermal rectification effect (BTRE) in the Corbino disk characterized by an annular shape. We derive the thermal rectification efficiency (RE) a…
The asymmetric Otto engine: frictional effects on performance bounds and operational modes
Varinder Singh, Vahid Shaghaghi, Tanmoy Pandit +3
We present a detailed study of an asymmetrically driven quantum Otto engine with a time-dependent harmonic oscillator as its working medium. We obtain analytic expressions for the…
Dissipation-induced collective advantage of a quantum thermal machine
Matteo Carrega, Luca Razzoli, Paolo Andrea Erdman +3
Do quantum correlations lead to better performance with respect to several different systems working independently? For quantum thermal machines, the question is whether a working…
Influence of the Anderson transition on thermoelectric energy conversion in disordered electronic systems
I. Khomchenko, H. Ouerdane, G. Benenti
So far, the efficiency of thermoelectric energy conversion remains low compared to traditional technologies, such as coal or nuclear. This low efficiency can be explained by connec…
Efficiency and thermodynamic uncertainty relations of a dynamical quantum heat engine
Luca Razzoli, Fabio Cavaliere, Matteo Carrega +2
In the quest for high-performance quantum thermal machines, looking for an optimal thermodynamic efficiency is only part of the issue. Indeed, at the level of quantum devices, fluc…
Generation of Pseudo-Random Quantum States on Actual Quantum Processors
Gabriele Cenedese, Maria Bondani, Dario Rosa +1
The generation of a large amount of entanglement is a necessary condition for a quantum computer to achieve quantum advantage. In this paper, we propose a method to efficiently gen…
