HOLD Three Bath Fridge

here is the paper I had in mind when we talked about the three-bath fridge.

https://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.108.070604

I don't know if this scenario has been considered in a strong coupling framework.

This fridge is working continuously. Maybe for HOPS a stroke-based model could be better to avoid long propagation to the steady state. Just as an example, here is an Otto-Fridge with strong coupling (I have not thou thoroughly read this paper)

TODO Heat Engines

See cite:Binder2018.

  • our strengths lie in medium/fast non-periodic driving
  • carnot maybe good idea: expansion and coupling at the same time
  • we need at least two baths -> non passive
  • stronger coupling + coherence should decrease
  • interesting effects if H(t) does not commute for different times
  • adiabaticity still present even with stronger coupling?
  • monotonic convergence to steady state is guaranteed cite:Feldmann2004Oct

    • distance measure is the relative entropy: not symmetric
  • shortcut to adiabaticity -> performance boost
Ref 92
  • convergence to limit cycle only for weak?
  • I don't think so
TODO Look at 105 in cite:Binder2018
TODO Chapter Two: How applicable to our case?
Single Bath Time Dependence
  • no unilimited energy extraction due to passivity

    • i thought: WRONG!, indeed you can, but it's likely bounded
    • N - times the same HO definitely is, see my ergotropy experiments and calculations

      • small but finite changes let things blow up. i suspect this was a waste of time
      • actually they don't, my numerics do not reach far enough
  • see also my notes on pure dephasing -> no energy transfer dephasing at all
  • see modulation experiments and cite:Binder2018

  • this work: more easily compared with classical, b.c. no simultaneous heat contact
  • qubit: no classical analog, simple
  • questions: curzon-ahlborn still valid, approaching equilibrium limit?, effect of quantum mechanics per-se
Model

  • cite:Binder2018 says this is problematic outside the limit cycle if modulation is fast: work vs. internal energy (do we have this problem?)
  • Modulating H does not change population
  • negative Temperatures as artifact of non-positive
Cycles
  • temperature equilibration is performed
  • sudden limit: otto cycle efficiency upper bound for all
  • step cycle converges onto reversible
  • final cycle: detailed balance for the gksl -> time dependent coefficients (but ok if slow-varying) otherwise problematic
  • non-equilibrium -> "temperatures of the working fluid not the same as the baths"
Striking Findings
  • different heat transfer law
  • high temperature limit:

    • times for isothermal branches
    • at maximum power: times independent of the isotherm temperatures

      • explicit modulation
    • maximum power at curzon-ahlborn eff, effectiveness 1/2
    • similar to newton but need not be close to eq.
General Notions in cite:Kurizki2021Dec
  • continous, article cite:Mukherjee2020Jan
Reciprocating Engines
  • adiabatic limit: wm state diagonal, efficiency 1-ω_c/ω_h
  • coherence generated when hamiltonian (system driving) does not commute with itself: extra (external) work

    • making the state non-passive is costing work
  • in sudden limit: cohorence gives work extraciton, markov

    • non-passivity for unitary extraction from the work medium
    • all engine types are equivalent (map over one cycle) when action small cite:Uzdin2015Sep

      • thermodynamic heat/power also converge to same
      • continous engines only extrac work from coherences
Chap 10: Anti-Zeno
  • Zeno: frequent measurement slow down evolution
  • Anti-Zeno: bath interaction accelleration by frequent measurement

    • more common

    • frequent changes in the coupling
TODO 18, 22 -> ergotropy
  • tighter bound p. 268 for entropy change
  • 18: nonthermal baths are special and may perform work
  • 22: nonpassivity of piston states -> work

    • maybe later: implement machine proposed in HOPS
Chap 20: Simultaneously Coupled Heat Machine
  • spectral separation
  • quantum advantage through anti-zeno effect

    Remarkably, for modulation rates that fall within the non-Markovian regime, power boosts are induced by the anti-Zeno effect (AZE) (Chs. 10, 16). Such boosts signify quan- tum advantage over heat-machines that commonly operate in the Markovian regime, where the quantumness of the systembath interaction plays no role. The AZE-induced power boost stems from the time-energy uncertainty rela- tion in quantum mechanics, which may result in enhanced systembath energy exchange for modulation periods comparable to the bath correlation time.

  • std. σ_x coupling
  • non markov ME til second order: see cite:Kofman2004Sep, cite:Raja2021Mar
  • use floquet me
  • markovian limit: diagonal ρ
  • for separated spectra: simple expression for work and current
  • speed limit for modulation \(\omega(t)=\omega_{\mathrm{a}}+\lambda \Delta \sin (\Delta t)\) $\Delta_{\mathrm{SL}}=\omega_{\mathrm{a}} \frac{T_{\mathrm{h}}-T_{\mathrm{c}}}{T_{\mathrm{c}}}$ \[ \Delta<\Delta_{\mathrm{SL}} \Longrightarrow \mathcal{J}_{\mathrm{c}}<0, \mathcal{J}_{\mathrm{h}}>0, \dot{W}<0 \] \[ \eta=\frac{\Delta}{\omega_{\mathrm{a}}+\Delta} \quad\left(\Delta \leq \Delta_{\mathrm{SL}}\right) \]
  • maximal power for flat spectral density near energy exchange frequecny and very hot bath \(\Delta_{\max }=\frac{1}{2} \Delta_{\mathrm{SL}}, \quad \eta\left(\dot{W}_{\max }\right)=\frac{1-\frac{T_{\mathrm{c}}}{T_{\mathrm{h}}}}{1+\frac{T_{\mathrm{c}}}{T_{\mathrm{h}}}} \geq \eta_{\mathrm{CA}}\) \(\eta_{\mathrm{CA}}=1-\left(\frac{T_{\mathrm{c}}}{T_{\mathrm{h}}}\right)^{1 / 2}\)

    • non-markovian Anti-Zeno

      1. WM and Bath coupled over $n\gg 1$ modulation periods where the period is much shorter than the bath correlation + spectral separation
      2. decouple baths for a time longer than the bath correlation time to remove correlations
      • power boost for detuned baths
      • working medium attains diagonal form with rate equations (weak coupling)
    • zeno regeime if we don't turn off soon enough

      • no work extraction except when correlations large
TODO Work, Heat definition in chap 19
  • on-off switching affects energy and ergotropy exchange
  • spectral separation: intermittend coupling to only one of the two baths

    • non-overlapping harmonics -> effective otto cycle?
    • so that one bath gives, the other takes \(\begin{aligned} \mathcal{L}_{j, \pm q}(t) \rho=& \frac{P_{q}}{2}\left[G_{j}\left(\omega_{0} \pm q \Delta\right)\left(\left[a \rho, a^{\dagger}\right]+\left[a, \rho a^{\dagger}\right]\right)\right.\\ &\left.+G_{j}\left(-\omega_{0} \mp q \Delta\right)\left(\left[a^{\dagger} \rho, a\right]+\left[a^{\dagger}, \rho a\right]\right)\right] \end{aligned}\)
  • non-markovian master equation for diagonal DM: needed when the coupling time in the order of the correlation time
  • small modulation depth
  • I don't understand (19.40) -> see p 375,378

    • leads with KMS condition to fast convergence to steady state

19.3 Model Parameters:

  • frictionless: interaction and system commute with themselves temporally
  • coupling modulation much slower than system
  • equidistant spectrum
  • spectral separation

    • see above
  • born approx
  • Pauli ME
  • optimal: hybrid cycle, smooth strokes are best

    • friction is regenerated by returning to passive state (shortcut)
  • no active friction: classical counterparts, quantum coherence is neither essential nor advantageous for HE performance

    • likely no quantum advantage in markovian
