For more than a century, thermodynamics has described how heat flows and engines run, while quantum mechanics has ruled the strange behavior of atoms and photons. Physicists have long suspected that ...
A multi-disciplinary team of researchers linked atomic-scale features to efficient heat-to-electricity conversion, offering ...
In classical physics, anything driven hard enough will eventually heat up, lose coherence, and settle into disorder. A new ...
When laser light passes through a cavity filled with atoms, part of it can do useful work (for instance, charge a quantum battery, top), whereas the other part turns into “heat” (bottom). Researchers ...
