Quantum batteries harness non-classical resources, such as quantum coherence and entanglement, to surpass the performance limits of classical energy-storage devices. Here we realize a room-temperature quantum battery based on a collective…

In this Letter certain fundamental physics issues relating to recent theories of so-called `spin quantum plasmas' are examined. It is shown that the derivations and some of the results obtained in these theories contradict well-established…

Quantum battery works as a micro- or nano-device to store and redistribute energy at the quantum level. Here we propose a spin-charger protocol, in which the battery cells are charged by a finite number of spins through a general Heisenberg…
