Nonperturbative renormalization of quantum thermodynamics from weak to strong couplings

Wei-Ming Huang et al.

Summary: By solving the exact master equation of open quantum systems, quantum thermodynamics is formulated from weak to strong couplings. The necessity of renormalization for thermodynamic quantities is found, and only with renormalized thermodynamic quantities can the exact steady state of the system be obtained.

Strong system-bath coupling effects in quantum absorption refrigerators

Felix Ivander et al.

Summary: This study investigates the performance of three-level quantum absorption refrigerators and the impact of strong couplings between the working system and thermal baths. It reveals that strong coupling can reshape the cooling window and allow for direct transport pathways between thermal reservoirs. The study emphasizes the need for a comprehensive approach to uncover the reshaping of the operational window, rather than relying on single parameters in limited domains.

Steady state in strong system-bath coupling regime: Reaction coordinate versus perturbative expansion

Camille L. Latune

Summary: The study compares two strategies for obtaining (approximately) steady states in strong coupling regime and finds that their predictions coincide in many situations. The successful testing of validity criteria helps determine the range of validity for both strategies.

Irreversible entropy production: From classical to quantum

Gabriel T. Landi et al.

Summary: Entropy production is a crucial quantity in finite-time thermodynamic processes, serving as a tool to extend thermodynamic considerations to nonequilibrium processes. Despite the lack of a unified theory for entropy production in general processes, progress has been made through frameworks like stochastic thermodynamics and quantum information theory. This has led to the development of a new generation of experiments addressing stochastic thermodynamic processes and the impact of entropy production.

Do photosynthetic complexes use quantum coherence to increase their efficiency? Probably not

Elinor Zerah Harush et al.

Summary: Quantum coherence in natural complexes has been found to have minimal impact on efficiency, with efficiency being independent of structural parameters, suggesting that evolution may have driven the optimization of natural complexes for other functions.

Non-Markovian decoherence dynamics of strong-coupling hybrid quantum systems: A master equation approach

Kai-Ting Chiang et al.

Summary: The experiments focus on the hybrid quantum system of a superconducting microwave cavity strongly coupled to an inhomogeneous broadening spin ensemble, using the exact master equation theory to study its non-Markovian decoherence dynamics under external driving fields. The theory generalizes the fluctuation-dissipation relation and describes in detail the transient non-Markovian decoherence, showing how the decoherence induced by the inhomogeneous broadening of the spin ensemble can be suppressed in the strong-coupling regime. This study also explores the relationships between quantum fluctuations and quantum memory through two-time correlations.
