We propose an optimal protocol using phase-preserving quantum measurements and phase-dependent modulations of the trapping potential at parametric resonance to cool a quantum oscillator to an occupation number of less than one quantum. We…
A new universality in optimization of trade-off between power and efficiency for low-dissipation Carnot cycles is presented. It is shown that any trade-off measure expressible in terms of efficiency and the ratio of power to its maximum…
Reducing the thermal noises in microwave (MW) resonators can bring about significant progress in many research fields. In this study, we consider using three-level or four-level systems as "quantum refrigerators" to cool down MW resonators…
Cooling mechanical resonators is of great importance for both fundamental study and applied science. We investigate the hybrid optomechanical cooling with a three-level atomic ensemble fixed in a strong excited optical cavity. By using the…
The performance of a radiatively cooled instrument is investigated in the context of optomechanical quantum experiments, where the environment of a macroscopic particle in a quantum-superposition has to be cooled to less than 20\,K in deep…
The heat capacity $\mathcal{C}$ of a given probe is a fundamental quantity that determines, among other properties, the maximum precision in temperature estimation. In turn, $\mathcal{C}$ is limited by a quadratic scaling with the number of…
The rate of temperature decrease of a cooled quantum bath is studied as its temperature is reduced to the absolute zero. The III-law of thermodynamics is then quantified dynamically by evaluating the characteristic exponent {\zeta} of the…
In this paper, we derive a number of inequalities which express power-efficiency trade-offs that hold generally for thermodynamic machines operating in non-equilibrium stationary states. One of these inequalities concerns the output power,…
A first principle reciprocating quantum refrigerator is investigated with the purpose of determining the limitations of cooling to absolute zero. We find that if the energy spectrum of the working medium possesses an uncontrollable gap,…
A unified $\chi$-criterion for heat devices (including heat engines and refrigerators) which is defined as the product of the energy conversion efficiency and the heat absorbed per unit time by the working substance [de Tom\'{a}s \emph{et…
First, we investigate the trade-off relations of quantum battery capacities in two-qubit system. We find that the sum of subsystem battery capacity is governed by the total system capacity, with this trade-off relation persisting for a…
A three-level quantum system having two energy gaps presents a nontrivial working medium for a quantum heat engine. Our focus lies in understanding the constraints on the ability to modulate these gaps relative to the changes in probability…
We study the refrigerator working between a finite-sized cold heat bath and an infinite-sized hot heat bath (environment) in the nonlinear response regime. We assume that the initial temperature $T_i$ of the finite-sized cold heat bath…
It is hoped that quantum computers will offer advantages over classical computers for combinatorial optimization. Here, we introduce a feedback-based strategy for quantum optimization, where the results of qubit measurements are used to…

We study the thermodynamic performance of a periodic quantum Otto cycle operating on the single-impurity Anderson model. Using a decomposition of the time-evolution generator based on the principle of minimal dissipation, combined with the…
The approach of shortcuts to adiabaticity enables the effective execution of adiabatic dynamics in quantum information processing with enhanced speed. Owing to the inherent trade-off between dynamical speed and the cost associated with the…
We study the problem of optimally generating quantum gates in a logical subspace embedded in a larger Hilbert space, where the dynamics is also affected by unknown static imperfections. This general problem is widespread across various…
We provide a framework for optimizing energy conversion processes in coherent quantum conductors fed by nonthermal resources. Such nonthermal resources, which cannot be characterized by temperatures or electrochemical potentials, occur in…
This paper focuses on the coefficient of performance (COP) at maximum figure of merit $\chi$ for a Brownian Carnot-like refrigerator, within the context of symmetric Low-Dissipation approach. Our proposal is based on the Langevin equation…
