Attaining Carnot efficiency with quantum and nanoscale heat engines

open access: yesnpj Quantum Information, 2021
A heat engine operating in the one-shot finite-size regime, where systems composed of a small number of quantum particles interact with hot and cold baths and are restricted to one-shot measurements, delivers fluctuating work.

Dispersion‐Less Dissipative Soliton Fiber Laser

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
A dispersion‐less fiber laser architecture generates high‐energy, pedestal‐free picosecond pulses without resorting to conventional pulse stretching. This energy‐managed laser achieves remarkable flexibility in pulse parameters, delivering up to 0.54 μJ$\mathrm{\mu}\mathrm{J}$ pulses with minimal spectral distortion using standard telecom components ...

Allergic Rhinitis and Its Impact on Asthma (ARIA)‐EAACI Guidelines—2024–2025 Revision: Part I—Guidelines on Intranasal Treatments

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Allergic rhinitis (AR) impacts quality of life, work and school productivity. Over the last years, an important body of evidence resulting from mHealth data has led to a better understanding of AR. Such advances have motivated an EAACI‐endorsed update of the Allergic Rhinitis and its Impact on Asthma (ARIA) guidelines (ARIA 2024 ...

The performance analysis of reversed Carnot cycle and reversed p-V cycle

open access: yesScientia Sinica Technologica, 2018
A reversed thermodynamic cycle is a cycle which consumes mechnical work and moves heat energy from a source with lower temperature to a source with higher temperature, and the coefficient of performance (COP) is generally applied to describe its ...

Future Perspective On Materials, Electrochemistry, and Cell Concepts for Redox‐Mediated CO2 Direct Air Capture Scenarios

open access: yesChemistryEurope, Volume 4, Issue 1, January 2026.
Direct air capture (DAC) of carbon dioxide (CO2) emerges as a key strategy for climate crisis mitigation. Redox‐mediated electrochemical carbon capture offers a promising route for energy‐efficient DAC. This perspective discusses recent advances in the field, highlighting key challenges, such as oxygen interference at low CO2 concentrations, and ...
