Quantum Dicke battery supercharging in the bound-luminosity state

Abstract

Quantum batteries, which are quantum systems to be used for the storage and transformation of energy, have been recently attracting research interest. A promising candidate for their investigation is the Dicke model, which describes an ensemble of two-level systems interacting with a single-mode electromagnetic wave in a resonator cavity. In order to charge the battery, a coupling between the ensemble of two-level systems and resonator cavity should be turned off at a certain moment of time. This moment of time is chosen in such a way that the energy gets fully stored in an ensemble of two-level systems. In our previous works we have investigated a bound-luminosity superradiant state of the extended Dicke model and found analytical expressions for the dynamics of coherent energy transfer between the superradiant condensate and the ensemble of two-level systems. Here, using our previous results, we have derived analytically the superlinear law for the quantum battery charging power $P\ensuremath{\sim}{N}^{3/2}$ as a function of the number $N$ of two-level systems in the battery, and also the $N$ dependence for the charging time ${t}_{c}\ensuremath{\sim}{N}^{\ensuremath{-}1/2}$. The $N$ exponent $3/2$ of the charging power is in quantitative correspondence with the recent result $1.541$ obtained numerically by other authors. The physics of Dicke quantum battery charging is considered in detail.

Enhanced energy transfer in a Dicke quantum battery

Xiang Zhang, M. Blaauboer

We theoretically investigate the enhancement of the charging power in a Dicke quantum battery which consists of an array of N two-level systems (TLS)coupled to a single mode of cavity photons. In the limit of small N , we analytically solve the time evolution for the full charging process. The eigenvectors of the driving Hamiltonian are found to be pseudo-Hermite polynomials and the evolution is thus interpreted as harmonic oscillator like behaviour. Then we demonstrate the average charging power using a collective protocol is N times larger than that of the parallel protocol when transferring the same amount of energy. Unlike previous studies, we point out that such quantum advantage does not originate from entanglement but is due to the coherent cooperative interactions among the TLSs. Our results provide intuitive quantitative insight into the dynamic charging process of a Dicke battery and can be observed under realistic experimental conditions.

Extended Dicke quantum battery with interatomic interactions and driving field

Fu-Quan Dou, You-Qi Lu, Yuan‐Jin Wang +1 more

We investigate the charging process of quantum battery (QB) systems in an extended Dicke model with both atomic interactions and an external driving field. We focus on the effects of the atomic interaction and the external driving field on the charging performance of the QB and find that the maximum stored energy of the QB has a critical phenomenon. We analyze the critical behavior and obtain the analytical expression of the critical atomic interaction. The dependence of the maximum stored energy, the energy quantum fluctuations, and the maximum charging power on the number $N$ of the two-level systems are also discussed. In particular, for the maximum charging power, we obtain the quantum advantage of the QB, which approximately satisfies a superlinear scaling relation ${P}_{\text{max}}\ensuremath{\propto}{N}^{\ensuremath{\alpha}}$, where scaling exponent $\ensuremath{\alpha}$ varies with the number $N$ of the two-level systems. In the ultrastrong coupling regime, the atomic interaction can lead to faster battery charging, and the quantum advantage $\ensuremath{\alpha}=1.88$ can be achieved. While in the deep-strong coupling regime, the quantum advantage of the QB's maximum charging power is the same as that of the Dicke QB, i.e., $\ensuremath{\alpha}=1.5$.

Quantum battery based on dipole-dipole interaction and external driving field

Wuji Zhang, Shuyue Wang, Chunfeng Wu +1 more

The Dicke model is a fundamental model in quantum optics, which describes the interaction between quantum cavity field and a large ensemble of two-level atoms. In this work, we propose an efficient charging quantum battery achieved by considering an extension Dicke model with dipole-dipole interaction and an external driving field. We focus on the influence of the atomic interaction and the driving field on the performance of the quantum battery during the charging process and find that the maximum stored energy exhibits a critical phenomenon. The maximum stored energy and maximum charging power are investigated by varying the number of atoms. When the coupling between atoms and cavity is not very strong, compared to the Dicke quantum battery, such quantum battery can achieve more stable and faster charging. In addition, the maximum charging power approximately satisfies a superlinear scaling relation P_{max}∝βN^{α}, where the quantum advantage α=1.6 can be reached via optimizing the parameters.

Comparing different operating regimes of a Dicke quantum battery

Giulia Gemme, Maura Sassetti, Dario Ferraro

In this paper, we consider a quantum battery, namely a miniaturized device able to store energy and release it on-demand. In the so-called Dicke configuration, it is made of [Formula: see text] two-level systems embedded into a cavity which plays the role of charger. In this context, we compare two different situations, namely: the resonant regime, where the energy of the two-level systems is the same as the one of the photons trapped in the cavity, and the off-resonant regime, where the photons are way more energetic. We observe that, while the energy stored per two-level system is comparable in the two cases, the average charging power, despite showing the same asymptotic superextensive scaling, is strongly suppressed in the latter. This analysis will help to orient future experimental implementations of these devices.

Ultrafast charging in a two-photon Dicke quantum battery

Alba Crescente, Matteo Carrega, Maura Sassetti +1 more

We consider a collection of two level systems, such as qubits, embedded into a microwave cavity as a promising candidate for the realization of high power quantum batteries. In this perspective, the possibility to design devices where the conventional single-photon coupling is suppressed and the dominant interaction is mediated by two-photon processes is investigated, opening the way to an even further enhancement of the charging performance. By solving a Dicke model with both single- and two-photon coupling we determine the range of parameters where the latter unconventional interaction dominates the dynamics of the system leading to better performances both in the charging times and average charging power of the QB compared to the single-photon case. In addition, the scaling of the maximum stored energy, fluctuations and charging power with the finite number of qubits $N$ is inspected. While the energy and fluctuations scale linearly with $N$, the quadratic growth of the average power leads to a relevant improvement of the charging performance of quantum batteries based on this scheme with respect to the purely single-photon coupling case. Moreover, it is shown that the charging process is progressively faster by increasing the coupling from the weak to the ultra-strong regime.

Quench dynamics in the Jaynes-Cummings-Hubbard and Dicke models

Andrew R. Hogan, A. Martin

Abstract Both the Jaynes-Cummings-Hubbard (JCH) and Dicke models can be thought of as idealised models of a quantum battery. In this paper we numerically investigate the charging properties of both of these models. The two models differ in how the two-level systems are contained in cavities. In the Dicke model, the N two-level systems are contained in a single cavity, while in the JCH model the two-level systems each have their own cavity and are able to pass photons between them. In each of these models we consider a scenario where the two-level systems start in the ground state and the coupling parameter between the photon and the two-level systems is quenched. Each of these models display a maximum charging power that scales with the size of the battery N and no super charging was found. Charging power also scales with the square root of the average number of photons per two-level system m for both models. Finally, in the JCH model, the power was found to charge inversely with the photon-cavity coupling κ.
