Dissipation-engineered dual-charger quantum batteries
The work proposes a new quantum battery design using two reservoirs—a hot one for driving and a cold one for caching—to stabilize stored energy. This setup uses nonequilibrium dissipation to actively suppress unwanted coherent energy backflow, creating a stable, population-inverted state with finite extractable ergotropy. This demonstrates how engineering dissipation can lead to robust quantum energy storage.
