摘要
En 中文
We report on a single-atom energy-conversion quantum device operating as an engine, or a refrigerator, coupled to a quantum load. The 'working fluid' consists of the two optical levels of an ion, while the load is one of its vibrational modes, cooled down to the quantum regime. We explore two important differences with classical engines: (1) the presence of a strong generic coupling interaction between engine and load, which can induce correlations between them and (2) the use of nonthermal baths. We examine the ergotropy of the load, which indicates the maximum amount of energy of the load extractable using solely unitary operations. We show that ergotropy rises with the number of engine cycles despite an increase in the information entropy of the load. The increase of ergotropy of the load points to the possibility of using the phonon distribution of a single atom as a form of quantum battery.
