Introduction to Quantum Thermodynamics: History and Prospects

Alicki, Robert; Kosloff, Ronnie

Pages: 1 –33

[Quantum Thermodynamics is a continuous dialogue between two independent theories: Thermodynamics and Quantum Mechanics. Whenever the two theories have addressed the same phenomena new insight has emerged. We follow the dialogue from equilibrium Quantum Thermodynamics and the notion of entropy...

Thermodynamic Principles and Implementations of Quantum Machines

Ghosh, Arnab; Niedenzu, Wolfgang; Mukherjee, Victor; Kurizki, Gershon

Pages: 37 –66

[The efficiency of cyclic heat engines is limited by the Carnot bound. This bound follows from the second law of thermodynamics and is attained by engines that operate between two thermal baths under the reversibility condition whereby the total entropy does not increase. By contrast, the...

Performance of Quantum Thermodynamic Cycles

Feldmann, Tova; Palao, José P.

Pages: 67 –85

[Quantum cycles are the microscopic version of the macroscopic thermodynamic cycles, such as the Carnot cycle or the Otto cycle. The quantum Otto cycle consists of four-strokes, two adiabats and two isochores. The equations for the dynamics on the adiabats and isochores are derived from first...

Quantum Features and Signatures of Quantum Thermal Machines

Levy, Amikam; Gelbwaser-Klimovsky, David

Pages: 87 –126

[The aim of this book chapter is to indicate how quantum phenomena are affecting the operation of microscopic thermal machines, such as engines and refrigerators. As converting heat to work is one of the fundamental concerns in thermodynamics, the platform of quantum thermal machines sheds light...
Available

Friction-Free Quantum Machines

del Campo, Adolfo; Chenu, Aurélia; Deng, Shujin; Wu, Haibin

Pages: 127 –148

[The operation of a quantum heat engine in finite time generally faces a trade-off between efficiency and power. Using shortcuts to adiabaticity (STA), this trade off can be avoided to engineer thermal machines that operate at maximum efficiency and tunable output power. We demonstrate the use of...

Physical Implementations of Quantum Absorption Refrigerators

Mitchison, Mark T.; Potts, Patrick P.

Pages: 149 –174

[Absorption refrigerators are autonomous thermal machines that harness the spontaneous flow of heat from a hot bath into the environment in order to perform cooling. Here we discuss quantum realizations of absorption refrigerators in two different settings: namely, cavity and circuit quantum...

Quantum Thermodynamics of Nanoscale Thermoelectrics and Electronic Devices

Whitney, Robert S.; Sánchez, Rafael; Splettstoesser, Janine

Pages: 175 –206

[This chapter is intended as a short introduction to electron flow in nanostructures. Its aim is to provide a brief overview of this topic for people who are interested in the thermodynamics of quantum systems, but know little about nanostructures. We particularly emphasize devices that work in...
Available

Quantum Batteries

Campaioli, Francesco; Pollock, Felix A.; Vinjanampathy, Sai

Pages: 207 –225

[This chapter is a survey of the published literature on quantum batteries – ensembles of non-degenerate quantum systems on which energy can be deposited, and from which work can be extracted. A pedagogical approach is used to familiarize the reader with the main results obtained in this field,...
Available

Quantum Rotor Engines

Seah, Stella; Nimmrichter, Stefan; Roulet, Alexandre; Scarani, Valerio

Pages: 227 –245

[This chapter presents autonomous quantum engines that generate work in the form of directed motion for a rotor. We first formulate a prototypical clock-driven model in a time-dependent framework and demonstrate how it can be translated into an autonomous engine with the introduction of a planar...
Available

Quantum Fluctuation Theorems

Funo, Ken; Ueda, Masahito; Sagawa, Takahiro

Pages: 249 –273

[Recent advances in experimental techniques allow one to measure and control systems at the level of single molecules and atoms. Here gaining information about fluctuating thermodynamic quantities is crucial for understanding nonequilibrium thermodynamic behavior of small systems. To achieve this...
