Quantum Heat Transport: PerturbationTheory in Liouville Space
We consider chains consisting of several identical subsystems weakly coupled by various types of next neighbor interactions. At both ends the chain is coupled to a respective heat bath with different temperature modeled by a Lindblad formalism. The temperature gradient introduced by this environment is then treated as an external perturbation. We propose a method to calculate the heat current a...
متن کاملThermal balance and quantum heat transport in nanostructures thermalized by local Langevin heat baths.
Modeling of thermal transport in practical nanostructures requires making tradeoffs between the size of the system and the completeness of the model. We study quantum heat transfer in a self-consistent thermal bath setup consisting of two lead regions connected by a center region. Atoms both in the leads and in the center region are coupled to quantum Langevin heat baths that mimic the damping ...
متن کاملEnergy Transport and Heat Production in Quantum Engines
Abstract A quantum dot driven by two ac gate potentials oscillating with a phase lag may be regarded as a quantum engine, where energy is transported and dissipated in the form of heat. In this chapter we introduce a microscopic model for a quantum pump and analyze the fundamental principle for the conservation of the charge and energy in this device. We also present the basics of two well esta...
متن کاملQuantum Thermodynamics in Strong Coupling: Heat Transport and Refrigeration
The performance characteristics of a heat rectifier and a heat pump are studied in a non-Markovian framework. The device is constructed from a molecule connected to a hot and cold reservoir. The heat baths are modelled using the stochastic surrogate Hamiltonian method. The molecule is modelled by an asymmetric double-well potential. Each well is semi-locally connected to a heat bath composed of...
