at the quantum scale processes generically operate far from equilibrium and are governed by fluctuations. Thus, experimental insight and empirical findings are indispensable in developing a comprehensive framework. To this end, we theoretically propose an experimentally realistic quantum engine, that utilizes transmon qubits as working substance. We solve the dynamics analytically and calculate its efficiency, that reaches a maximum value of 35%.
Non-thermal quantum engine in transmon qubits
The design and implementation of quantum technologies necessitates the understanding of thermodynamic processes in the quantum domain. In stark contrast to macroscopic thermodynamics,
