We undertake a theoretical study of a finite-time quantum Otto engine cycle driven by inter-
particle interactions in a weakly interacting one-dimensional (1D) Bose gas in the …

Based on the existing model of an irreversible magnetohydrodynamic cycle, this paper uses
finite time thermodynamic theory and multi-objective genetic algorithm (NSGA-II), introduces …

Employing universal relations for the Onsager coefficients in the linear regime at the
symmetric point of the single impurity Anderson model, we calculate the conditions under …

Coupled double quantum dots (c-2QD) connected to leads have been widely adopted as
prototype model systems to verify interference effects on quantum transport at the …

Electron transmission through semiconductor superlattices is studied with transfer matrix
method and resonance theory. The formation of electron band-pass transmission is ascribed …

Efficiency at maximum power (EMP) is a very important specification for a heat engine to
evaluate the capacity of outputting adequate power with high efficiency. It has been proved …

The efficiency of a steady-state thermochemical Brownian heat engine is considered, where
the heat flux from the hot to the cold reservoir drives particles from the lower chemical …

We study the performance of a cyclic heat engine which uses a small system with a finite
number of ultracold atoms as its working substance and works between two heat reservoirs …

A novel model of the hot carrier solar cell (HCSC) with double energy selective contacts
(ESCs) is established. Expressions of the efficiency and power output are derived …

Based on the Landauer–Büttiker theory, we explore the thermal regimes of two-terminal
nanoscale systems with an energy-peaked transmission function. The device is in contact …
