IPAS Novel Quantum Battery Charging featured in Physical Review Applied
Quantum batteries harness the unique properties of quantum mechanics to enhance energy storage compared to conventional batteries. In particular, they are theoretically predicted to undergo superextensive charging, with batteries having larger capacity actually taking less time to charge.
A novel mechanism for quantum battery charging using a quantum property known as dark states was introduced.ÌýTheÌýmechanism exhibits superextensive capacity, where the energy density actually grows with the size of the battery, a property that has been absent in quantum batteries up until now. This protocol is major step towards the experimental realization of a quantum batteryÌýthat achieves both superextensive capacity and charging.
