Electronic circuits operating at sub-kelvin temperatures are attractive candidates for studying
classical and quantum thermodynamics: their temperature can be controlled and measured …

Thermodynamics originated in the need to understand novel technologies developed by the
Industrial Revolution. However, over the centuries, the description of engines, refrigerators …

Topological states of matter are characterized by topological invariants, which are physical
quantities whose values are quantized and do not depend on the details of the system (such …

Interest in superconducting microresonators has grown dramatically over the past decade.
Resonator performance has improved substantially through the use of improved geometries …

Quantum thermodynamics is emerging both as a topic of fundamental research and as a
means to understand and potentially improve the performance of quantum devices,,,,,,,,–. A …

Advances in the fabrication and characterization of nanoscale systems now allow for a better
understanding of one of the most basic issues in science and technology: the flow of heat at …

Radiation sensors based on the heating effect of absorbed radiation are typically simple to
operate and flexible in terms of input frequency, so they are widely used in gas detection 1 …

We review recent theoretical work on thermoelectric energy harvesting in multi-terminal
quantum-dot setups. We first discuss several examples of nanoscale heat engines based on …

Thermal transport in individual atomic junctions and chains is of great fundamental interest
because of the distinctive quantum effects expected to arise in them. By using novel, custom …
