Algebraic power scaling in a slowly-quenched bosonic quantum battery

Quantum Physics 2025-12-01 v1

Abstract

Bosonic modes provide a promising platform for quantum batteries as a result of their unbounded energy spectrum. However, the energy that can be stored during a coherent charging process is limited due to coherent oscillations between the charger and battery. In this Letter, we show that by introducing a slow quench in the interaction between a coherently driven quadratic oscillator battery and a charger system, the maximum battery power (PB,mP_{B,m}) scales algebraically with the quench duration (τQ\tau_Q), i.e., PB,mτQαP_{B,m} \propto \tau_Q^\alpha, where 0<α20<\alpha\leq2 is a function of the quench ramp exponent. This finding implies that, counterintuitively, slower quenches lead to faster charging. Such a quench suppresses coherent energy oscillations between the battery and the charger, allowing an unbounded increase in power. Furthermore, we discuss the effect of charger dissipation, which imposes a finite limit on the maximum power. We also show that the temporal extensive scaling occurs in a broader context by mapping the system to a coherently driven Tavis-Cummings battery.
