Abstract
Energy extraction from quantum batteries by means of completely positive trace-preserving (CPTP) maps leads to the concept of CPTP-local passive states, which identify bipartite states from which no energy can be squeezed out by applying any CPTP map to a particular subsystem. We prove, for arbitrary dimension, that if a state is CPTP-local passive with respect to a Hamiltonian, then an arbitrary number of copies of the same state-including an asymptotically large one-is also CPTP-local passive. We show further that energy can be extracted efficiently from CPTP-local passive states employing noncompletely positive trace-preserving (NCPTP) but still physically realizable maps on the same part of the shared battery on which operation of CPTP maps were useless. Moreover, we provide the maximum extractable energy using local-CPTP operations, and then, we present an explicit class of states and corresponding Hamiltonians, for which the maximum can be outperformed using physical local NCPTP maps. We provide a necessary and sufficient condition and a separate necessary condition for an arbitrary bipartite state to be unable to supply any energy using NCPTP operations on one party with respect to an arbitrary but fixed Hamiltonian. We build an analogy between the relative status of CPTP and NCPTP operations for energy extraction in quantum batteries, and the association of distillable entanglement with entanglement cost for asymptotic local manipulations of entanglement. The surpassing of the maximum energy extractable by NCPTP maps for CPTP-passive as well as for CPTP-nonpassive battery states can act as detectors of non-CPTPness of quantum maps.

Abstract
Quantum thermodynamic process involves manipulating and controlling quantum states to extract energy or perform computational tasks with high efficiency. There is still no efficient general method to theoretically quantify the effect of the quantumness of coherence and entanglement in work extraction. In this work, we propose a thermodynamics speed to quantify the extracting work. We show that the coherence of quantum systems can speed up work extracting with respect to some cyclic evolution beyond all incoherent states. We further show the genuine entanglement of quantum systems may speed up work extracting beyond any bi-separable states. This provides a new thermodynamic method to witness entangled systems with physical quantities.

Abstract
The Dicke model is a fundamental model in quantum optics, which describes the interaction between quantum cavity field and a large ensemble of two-level atoms. In this work, we propose an efficient charging quantum battery achieved by considering an extension Dicke model with dipole-dipole interaction and an external driving field. We focus on the influence of the atomic interaction and the driving field on the performance of the quantum battery during the charging process and find that the maximum stored energy exhibits a critical phenomenon. The maximum stored energy and maximum charging power are investigated by varying the number of atoms. When the coupling between atoms and cavity is not very strong, compared to the Dicke quantum battery, such quantum battery can achieve more stable and faster charging. In addition, the maximum charging power approximately satisfies a superlinear scaling relation P_{max}∝βN^{α}, where the quantum advantage α=1.6 can be reached via optimizing the parameters.

Boosting Quantum Battery-Based IoT Gadgets via RF-Enabled Energy Harvesting. SENSORS 2022; 22:s22145385.

Abstract
The search for a highly portable and efficient supply of energy to run small-scale wireless gadgets has captivated the human race for the past few years. As a part of this quest, the idea of realizing a Quantum battery (QB) seems promising. Like any other practically tractable system, the design of QBs also involve several critical challenges. The main problem in this context is to ensure a lossless environment pertaining to the closed-system design of the QB, which is extremely difficult to realize in practice. Herein, we model and optimize various aspects of a Radio-Frequency (RF) Energy Harvesting (EH)-assisted, QB-enabled Internet-of-Things (IoT) system. Several RF-EH modules (in the form of micro- or nano-meter-sized integrated circuits (ICs)) are placed in parallel at the IoT receiver device, and the overall correspondingly harvested energy helps the involved Quantum sources achieve the so-called quasi-stable state. Concretely, the Quantum sources absorb the energy of photons that are emitted by a photon-emitting device controlled by a micro-controller, which also manages the overall harvested energy from the RF-EH ICs. To investigate the considered framework, we first minimize the total transmit power under the constraints on overall harvested energy and the number of RF-EH ICs at the QB-enabled wireless IoT device. Next, we optimize the number of RF-EH ICs, subject to the constraints on total transmit power and overall harvested energy. Correspondingly, we obtain suitable analytical solutions to the above-mentioned problems, respectively, and also cross-validate them using a non-linear program solver. The effectiveness of the proposed technique is reported in the form of numerical results, which are both theoretical and simulations based, by taking a range of operating system parameters into account.

Abstract
We study the problem of charging a dissipative one-dimensional XXX spin-chain quantum battery using local magnetic fields in the presence of spin decay. The introduction of quantum feedback control based on homodyne measurement contributes to improving various performances of the quantum battery, such as energy storage, ergotropy, and effective space utilization rate. For the zero-temperature environment, there is a set of optimal parameters to ensure that the spin-chain quantum battery can be fully charged and the energy stored in the battery can be fully extracted under the perfect measurement condition, which is found through the analytical calculation of a simple two-site spin-chain quantum battery and further verified by numerical simulation of a four-site spin-chain counterpart. For completeness, the adverse effects of imperfect measurement, anisotropic parameter, and finite temperature on the charging process of the quantum battery are also considered.

Abstract
The charging of an open quantum battery is investigated where the charger and the quantum battery interact with a common environment. At zero temperature, the stored energy of the battery is optimal as the charger and the quantum battery share the same coupling strength (g_{C}=g_{B}). By contrast, in the presence of the quantum jump-based feedback control, the energy stored in the battery can be greatly enhanced for different couplings (g_{C}>g_{B}). Considering the feasibility of the experiment, a model of Rydberg quantum battery is proposed with cascade-type atoms interacting with a dissipative optical cavity. The effective coupling strength between the charger (quantum battery) and the cavity field is hence adjustable and one can make the battery close to perfect excitation. The adverse factors of charging quantum batteries such as time delay for feedback, finite temperature, and spontaneous emission of Rydberg atoms are also discussed, and the result shows that the quantum battery is still able to retain a satisfactory energy storage effect.

Abstract
We show that it is possible to have nonzero ergotropy in the steady states of an open quantum system consisting of qubits that are collectively coupled to a thermal bath at a finite temperature. The dynamics of our model leads the qubits into a steady state that has coherences in the energy eigenbasis when the system consists of more than a single qubit. We observe that even though the system does not have inverted populations, it is possible to extract work from the coherences and we analytically show that in the high-temperature limit, ergotropy per unit energy is equal to the l_{1} norm of coherence for the two-qubit case. Further, we analyze the scaling of coherence and ergotropy as a function of the number of qubits in the system for different initial states. Our results demonstrate that one can design a quantum battery that is charged by a dissipative thermal bath in the weak-coupling regime.
