Recent years have witnessed an explosion of interest in quantum devices for the production,
storage, and transfer of energy. This Colloquium concentrates on the field of quantum …

Quantum batteries are devices made from quantum states, which store and release energy
in a fast and efficient manner, thus offering numerous possibilities in future technological …

We investigate the connection between quantum resources and extractable work in
quantum batteries. We demonstrate that quantum coherence in the battery or the battery …

In the standard quantum theory, the causal order of occurrence between events is
prescribed, and must be definite. This has been maintained in all conventional scenarios of …

The presence of noise or the interaction with an environment can radically change the
dynamics of observables of an otherwise isolated quantum system. We derive a bound on …

The exactly solvable Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model has recently received considerable
attention in both condensed matter and high energy physics because it describes quantum …

Constraints on work extraction are fundamental to our operational understanding of the
thermodynamics of both classical and quantum systems. In the quantum setting, finite-time …

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 …

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 …

We present a collision model for the charging of a quantum battery by identical
nonequilibrium qubit units. When the units are prepared in a mixture of energy eigenstates …
